Who knows, maybe thy'll fly awesome, but I wouldn't want to be guinea pig on it.

Why is it that every time I see someone even mention this product you are the first to jump in and start bashing? Why not give the guy a break and let him get a product out. It seems that he knows what he is doing and from what I see he builds a nice aircraft. I am sure that you are unable to bash his aircraft from personal experience, so it must be something personal. So I say leave the guy alone and lets see what he can do!!!!!

In all fairness to BW, his evaluation of planes has been spot on. He's simply saying that there's no track record to speak of. So those who spoke highly about it without having seen / flow it are .... .

I understand what your saying about being able to give an evaluation. But if you type in Dietrich for a search. Everything that comes up BW is there to give a bad impression of the aircraft/company/builder. All I am asking is give the guy a chance.
