Court records are SUCH fun....

Hey Ted, I wonder if I would have the same luck?? (;-)

Fred

Is that the kit for which the nosecone never appeared? Or is it a different kit?

-Kevin

I'm glad it worked out for you. It's to bad that all of Jerry's customers can't say the same.

I'm curious - what is about the balsa nose cone that you LOVE? Isn't it a PITA to have to fill?

The love is pure nostalgia for me. I haven't done a balsa cone since like 1981 or so. To me this particular cone mates PERFECTLY with the BT. Makes me wonder what the secret really is. CNC wood lathe maybe?

Probably either that or a good pattern.

I keep waiting for them to drone in, along with a few others..(:-) Although, I think some have seen the light, so to speak..

Fred

There's an interesting angle to this from Mr Weinshenker (not sure that's the right spelling), as well. If he worked with jerry to fly what the ATF classifies as an explosive after the felony conviction, he could be in hot water, too.

-Kevin

Does it seem that JI isn't posting anything the last few days?

Wasn't it the Pretenders that had a song "Working on the chain gang"?

Does one or more felony convictions prevent someone from getting a LEMP, LEUP, or other government documents needed to legally sell and/or ship things that may need a LEMP/LEUP? Or own a company which does? (But they probably already had his fingerprints on file!)

Is the mosaic just the jail tattoos that Jerry's getting on his butt?

Good old Jerry... He'll find some way to blame TRA for all of this!

"I bought this USR mouse chewed rocket kits and didn't even get a t-shirt to prove it!"

See?

I did as he asked.

I believe a felony conviction precludes one from obtaining an explosives permit of any kind, or working in a capacity that requires the handling of explosives.

This was one of the points of contention when the Patriot Act was enacted, as I recall -- it required shipping companies to get background investigations on thousands of employees.

The conviction is a state conviction; the ATF would potentially have them for a federal conviction.

-Kevin

So Jerry's felony convictions would prevent him from getting the permits he needs. That could be why he keeps claiming he needs no permits (and can ship motors as "model airplane parts"!), as there's no way for him to get the permits!.

I'm a bit surprised that no one has mentioned the JI request to the TRA BOD in the latest TR. It seems the crux of it was "Jerry, you need to play by the same rules as any other motor vendor, and until you can, just go away..."

The Pretenders "Back on the Chain Gang"....

Yep.

Haven't seen the new TR yet.

Of course.

Ray,

I can email it to you if you'd like.

I must admit that I do not recall.

Is that the car with the bullet holes?

Bob Kaplow NAR # 18L TRA # "Impeach the TRA BoD" >>> To reply, remove the TRABoD!

No, that was an 1980"s Volkswagen diesel Jetta. The car originally belonged to Chuck Rogers. To My knowledge, jerry did not pay for that car either.

Ah, series MKI Jetta.

Sorry, I have this thing for veedubyahs.

Ted Novak TRA#5512 IEAS#75

You have to tell us the story about the bullet holes. THis ought to be good.

BTW, what was the distructive device Jerry was busted for?
