Aviation Consumer Reviewing M20K

[GeeBee]

Aviation Consumer is going to do a used aircraft review of the M20K. They are looking for various pictures of yours as well as comments. Send them to ConsumerEditor@hotmail.com

Nothing screams professional like a Hotmail account.

They do have this form too - which probably goes to the same email account, but feels slightly more "official."

Aviation Consumer does not take ad revenue and my guess is their business model requires tight control of expenses. While one could assail their business model, their email address etc there are four things I appreciate

1. Articles screaming "you need THIS" only to find a full page ad for the same product in a prominent place

2. Honest clear evaluation of products both new and used

3. Holding manufacturers accountable without fear

4. They are not a dying aviation publication that tries to make you believe "less is better" by increasing the paper weight and firing well liked editors who actually knew what they were talking about and replace them with a bunch of latte sipping upper East Siders like Flying . If I want Town and Country with airplanes, I'll subscribe to Town and Country.

Love it - sizzling hot brutal roast and well deserved!

you realize they already own a domain. aviationconsumer.com

 

it literally costs nothing to set up another email box on the hosting plan THEY ALREADY PAY FOR.

 

all this does is telegraph out of touch amateurs.

 

the publication is fine. I stopped getting it some years ago

Odd that the mere mention of an old e-mail domain would strike such a nerve and derail the entire positive and constructive message of the post. Almost sounds like there is an embarrassing back story here…
