Dear Carsten,

    Thanks very much for sending the data on the weights of completed ES's.
Your e-mail had data for six, but I think you meant that you would be
sending data for the others by snail-mail.  I'm sure the data will be
interesting -- there are really a couple of light ones in there!

    Also, I owe you an apology for the snide tone of my comment at the end
of my last posting to LML.  It implied that I did not expect the factory (or
you) to be completely open about the real-world weight data, given the 1900
pound figure published in your sales data and the understandable desire to
present the ES payload in a favorable light.  Your response has certainly
proven that I was wrong to make that comment, so I apologize to you and to
Lancair.  I'll try to be more careful in the future, and am looking forward
to more of the excellent support I have received from you personally and
from all of the Lancair folks.

Jim Cameron  (once & future ES)


[For LML:  The six weights sent were:
                        N79007         IO550               1820***
                        N888L           IO360               1870*
                        N62ES          IO550               1964**
                        N3296P        IO550                1950**
                        N82500         IO550                2032
                        N41MF         IO550                 2050*

where * is less upholstery, **means less paint, and *** means less
upholstery & paint.]
