Re: Did slimline go out of business ?

Their website appears to be down - however let me ask a few industry people before we assume anything..

Re: Did slimline go out of business ?

I guess that your first step after this is to find out what their phone number is and to make a quick call.

A lot of confusion can be solved with a quick chat.... that's what my manager says to me everytime I get into a hissy-fit mail war. Until he got roped in on one and had to escalate it to get the war to end -- the ICBM (Interoffice Completely Ballistic Memo) looked more like a Saturn V launch rather than a Thor/Atlas.....

Re: Did slimline go out of business ?

For the record, no one at Fly RC has heard anything regarding Slimline... supposed to be business as usual.

Will post if I hear anything further.

Yes, sort of. Lots of messages going back and forth, C'ed up to the VP and SVP levels, but no motion or very little usable content. Think of some of the flame wars that arae held around here during March when the cabin fever really kicks in.
