Forgot to thank you for the heads-up. The BMW show was amazing. I can't believe they sell enough cars to pay for the incredible infrastructure they created. The robotic systems, the Aluminum/Magnesium hybrid engine block research and equipment, dip tanks for the special primers, painting technology (only 1 gallon per car!), etc.

Amazing stuff. :thumbup:

I thought the best tidbit from the bmw show was them recently learning the blue/white emblem had nothing to do with aviation but came from the Bavarian flag.

Really? I've always been told it was a spinning propeller.

bmw believed and told the spinning prop story as well. they didn't explain how they found it was from the bavarian flag only showing it...
