I have 4 retrofitted 172's and i got a bit depressed when i heard TAE went bust. Had a think, made some calls, had another think.
Result will sound bizarre but i bought £30k of shares at 40 cents a pop.
Would the gloaters stand by to laugh when it all goes wrong!
The diamond engine is a joke - steel block - no fadecs - v.v.v.v heavy. Literally just a car engine with no redundancy. It's about one thousand light years from certification.
Another couple of days should see a buyer who needs access to the technology and certification emerge or start buying shares methinks.
Fav is Textron or Diamond.
I may just end up with a face full of egg though! Lets see.........
