Discussion regarding post of link of "tec-spotter.de/Brunnthal" at Rogers website

[Roger Gaemperle]

Ed,

you are one of the very few select persons to whom I sent previews of the Ju 88 G-7 photos (among other photos like D-IWAU, the Ju 88 photo published at BGR, etc.). All you did was to confirm what I already knew and as soon as you had received the scans from me you said something like 'I know more but I don't share it with you because I am working also on a book'. Of course did I understand that and of course did I never ever even think about moaning on that. So, why do you react like this now?

Have you ever sent me a photo from your personal archive that you were going to publish like I did? No you did not. Not a single one, apart from publicly accessible photos of Bernburg airfield (footnote.com). But that would have never been a cause for me to get upset. So, I still do not understand your reaction at all. Sorry, I am at a loss.

Like you did not want to share the knowledge about the G-7 (perfectly understandable), I of course did not want to share the photos that I was about to publish. If you do not understand that (like I understood that you did not want to share your Ju 88 G-7 knowledge), than I can't do anything about it. Below the line, I shared much more with you than you did with me. That's all I could do.

Anyhow, I wish you success with your research. For me, that Brunnthal topic is definitely closed and I am going to use this thread only for updates regarding my publication. If you want to discuss this further, please send me a PM.

Thank you, Ed!
Roger
