Were you watching live when they auctioned of the O-Series that went for 2,160,000 Euro (including the premium)? I know there was some applause for the KE7A and Elcan, I can only imagine the O would have received a standing ovation!

 

[jmilkins]

no- missed that- would have heard the applause from Austria here in Australia...and the premium is 23% I think....
