Faked Voss fabric

I stumbled upon this.



I thought his aircraft was silvery blue and totaly disinagrated?

Dear Willi,

This is part of the infamous faked fabric collection and faked reports created by one Rodney Gerrard. Do a forum archives search and you can find out more about it.

Mate,
I believe TAZ has a few of them in his collection.

Brefore he knew these were fakes did Taz ever put these forward as 'evidence'. It would be quite understandable if he did.

What is your point, Just like Paul Leaman has many of Rodney Gerrard fakes too. Why don't you read C&C (Vol.26 No.3) before you start string things up, I would suggest that if you don't have any thing constructive to do then make stupid accusation to go find an hobby better suited for you.

What is the matter with you. Again, you never seem to understand the content of what you're reading. I made no accusation, only an innocent enquiry. Read and try to understand my last sentence. Paul put forward some of the fakes as documentary evidence, before he knew better, a completely understandable thing to do. I merely asked if Taz had once given them credence as genuine. Presumably he did, otherwise he wouldn't have bought them. I'm merely trying to point out, yet again, how foolish it is to be dogmatic about things. Future research may prove one wrong. Then it's egg on the face time. Please try to be less childish.

Cripes! What's with all the rudeness, Lloyd?

Never mind C&C vol.26 No.3...Have you read the forum's 'terms of use'?

From his tone, I'd say he doesn't like you very much, Alex.
