$25,000 per display

[edit]

"On 17 February, a Federal judge ordered Paulhan to pay $25,000 for every paid display. Furious, he cancelled his American tour and went to New York to challenge the Wright brothers by giving public demonstration flights for free. The dispute rumbled on and in March an agreement was reached whereby he could continue to give flying exhibitions in his Farman biplane on condition that he pay a $6,000 a week bond, pending the outcome of the case."

It isn't clear from the article. Is the "$25,000" and the "case" all part of the Wright brothers sueing for patent breaking? If not, what is it for? -- SGBailey (talk) 11:44, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it is related to the Wright Bros case, and you are right that it could be clearer. I'll see to it. Emeraude (talk) 13:55, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
