Andy Saunders a Grave Robber?

For obvious reasons I'm reluctant to enter this debate. However, I must just comment on the remarks by "Tony" reference the sale of items from wreck sites. I think that he refers to items I was selling for executors of the estate of the late Peter Foote, aviation historian and previous owner of Me.109 W.Nr 1190. Maybe the executors of the estate would have agreed with "Tony" that they should not be sold and we should have advised them to take them all to the tip? On the other hand....probably not? However, I am afraid that "Tony" is singularly ill informed as to the facts of the case and would be ill advised to take further any controversial or personal comments. Remember, please, that this resulted in another forum being shut down almost immediately and I'd hate for anyone to allow things to drift dangerously in that direction. However, I will take whatever action neccesary to protect my interests. The ridiculous statements last time, fuelled by garish tabloid "journalism", resulted in suggestions of physical violence towards me on the previous site - thus everyone will understand my sensitivity at this time.By all means debate away, but please understand that I'm watching carefully and with interest.(By the way,as this debate goes on there are at least four "fatal" crashes under rebuild to fly on a worldwide basis - but I'll not enter that debate.) Thanks to everyone who has offered support and encouragement throughout this apalling ordeal. Be patient everyone and the whole story will be told in due course. Hopefully we are all interested in the facts rather than idle speculation? Andy Saunders.
