In reply top Famous Aircraft Names... posted by Dave Robinson on Fri Jan 23, 2004 02:58:56 AM
: For the many that don't know apart from Typhoons I am invo
: lved in the restoration of DH88 Comet Racer Black Magic (a
: irworthy status). In the latest Microsoft Flight Sim one
: of the options is Black Magic. At no point were we contac
: ted by Microsoft or any other company to see if they could
: use the name...we recently asked microsoft if they would
: be willing to put a little sponsorship into the real aircr
: aft. We were informed that our project did not fulfill th
: eir criteria.
:
: Can companies use the name of famous aircraft without perm
: ission from the owners? do any copyrights cover this type
: of situation? Would the owners of Memphis Belle have to
: have given permission for the name to be used in the film?

: I look forward to any comments.......
