This was his grandson, also named Ferdinand Porsche, who went by "Butzi" early in his life, and "F.A." later on.

If you're going to piss on someone's memory because of stuff his grandfather did, you might as well hang yourself for what your ancestors (and mine) did to the Indians, the Chinese, the Irish, the Africans, and so very many others.

Father: Ferdinand Porsche - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Son: Ferdinand Anton Ernst Porsche - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Grandson: Ferdinand Alexander Porsche - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Thanks for the clarification.
I stand corrected.

I also am not a believer in visiting the sins of the parents on the children.

Peter.
