Default Aerosport sold?

looking for a case of oil, ran across this news release.....

http://aerosportpower.com/Announcement.html

what kind of new owners would do a release, without mentioning Bart, Sue & co.? ( baaaaaaaaaaaaaaad move)
I guess Rob Wharf has been GM for a while, but sounds like Bart & Sue have 'gone' to ECI in Texas. (at least the weather is the same!)

anyone have a pirep on this? some further info here:

Yes, Aerosport was actually sold a couple of years ago, and Bart and Sue have been quietly pulling back from it to do other things. It was quiet enough that I hadn't herd of it until SnF this year!

Good or Bad? I don't know the answer to that - time, engines, and customer interaction will tell.
