Sonex Accidents

Great discussion.
I am going to add to Chris's statement and state we have zero intention of removing the accident data from sonexfoundation.com - in fact, we hope to continue adding to the dataset to improve the knowledge base and hopefully raise awareness of the root cause of the issues. Sadly, the root cause is often us.
To their credit, Sonex Aircraft LLC has never raised the publication of this as an issue. One vocal former foundation member did. One. I am hoping this person reads this thread.
There is always a fine line between supporting the Sonex factory and open honest conversations. It is in all of our interests to do both, but to do so responsibly. I think that is the hardest part of it all.
