Javelin - sorry to hear of your experience, in a perfect world everyone would be able to trust everyone else.. .However, this isn't a perfect world, and I'm a little suprised that your didn't get the aeroplane in question thoroughly checked over by an independant engineer.. .Any legitimate vendor would have no objection to this, and it may cost you a fixed fee in advance, but would have saved you a lot of pain in the future.. .Unfortunately you know that now..........
