With a sigh of relief I can now say, definitely, that the shenanigans on another forum that seemed to have been kicked off by discussion about this engine were - after all - not shenanigans about this engine at all!

Confused? So am I !

I don't know him either but I think he should stand up for what he stood for. Or something. :D

Thank you one and all for the support.

I am quite surprised, to say the least, that such a kerfufle was kicked off and is still ongoing on another forum. That said, and notwithstanding my embarrasment that I could have (a) unwittingly been the catalyst for this and (b) that my involvement has struck such a chord with so many people (many of them unknown to me) I very much hope that discussions here remain focussed on the issues which are at the heart of this forum.

Again, thanks for the messages and if anyone reading this has not had a reply yet to an e-mail then I hope Ruy will permit me to say here, please bear with me. At almost 100 e-mails and counting is a bit of a struggle to cope with. That so many people have such a passion to see fair play does somewhat restore ones sometimes jaded view of human nature!

A weeknd away in the company of Peter Cornwell investigating a Battle of France crash site at least restored some sanity. The research into local beverages was also deemed a success!

Word reached me today that the seller identified himself by telephone as "Max". However, Max is apparently not the name of the vendor that has previously been identified - although we seem no further forward in finding the buyer. The mystery endures. For now.
