It concerns Tony’s opinion of John Kerner and his work. Tony introduced me to John Kerner about three months ago in Arlington, WA. I had heard of John previously when he had his shop in California. Tony called me and told me John was building a IVP in Arlington and suggested that I meet them there to view the project as Tony had been spending some time there already. When I arrived, Tony pointed out some interesting aspects of the project, most notably the aileron crossover tube aft of the spar box instead of behind the instrument panel. Tony told me he thought this was possibly the best built Lancair IVP project he had seen. He had spoken highly of the innovations and quality on the phone and he was effusive in his compliments during the review and inspection he and John were kind enough to conduct for me. This says nothing about what caused the crash, but it does say a lot about Tony’s opinion of and confidence in John Kerner’s work. I think Tony would want all of us to know this detail in the light of the current discussion.
