We have just published the latest newsletter for the Pipistrel Sinus

and
Virus Motorgliders manufactured in Slovenia.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

VIRUS motorgliders ???

You too can be the envy of the tea party when you tell 'em...
Ya got a.... VIRUS in Slovenia. g


Barnyard BOb- not from Madison Avenue



P.S.
I didn't mention SINUS.....
cause mine are in good shape.

However, it might be worth noting that anyone
looking to market a product in the USA or elsewhere...
contemplate/research names very carefully. It can spell
the difference between disaster and success at times.


You mean like GM's electric car--the Impact?

Or that ladies' jogging shoe--the Incubus?

Or the diet lozenge Ayds?


1 = pipistrel - small european bat also known as a flittermouse.


IIUC Flittermouse or fleddermouse, litterally means 'flying mouse'
and is the generic German word for 'bat'.

2 = Sinus - Pathology, A fistula leading from a pus-filled cavity.
3 = Virus - Various simple submicroscopic parasites of plants,
animals, and bacteria that often cause disease.
