It wouldn't hurt to mention to them that the significant percentage of
active GA plane owners are following this story with interest...

Interesting comment, I have always wondered how many people are
involved with the rec.aviation NGs. I think we are a small subset
(maybe 1 or 2%) of active GA pilots.

WAGs folllow...
r.a.* has perhaps several hundred (regular) posters, and several
thousand lurkers? In contrast, there are something like 600k pilots
in the US... Maybe 100-150k of those are active GA pilots?

It would be interesting to see Google/dejanews statistics on how many
times archived threads are read.

Perhaps AOPA can help? Can they be petitioned to start a customer
comments section, where pilot/owners can air their horror stories
about problem vendors?
