In response to my query re: the Columbia 300 a couple of days ago, I received the following email from Lance below. I offered that I'd post it on the LML if there was no problem with doing that - and since I've not heard back in at least a day with anything to the contrary, here it is, verbatim. Dan Schaefer The message follows: ************************************* Dan, no, we're not sleeping. Sneak preview: First customer Columbia has just been fully blessed (and praised) by both the Seattle ACO office and now the Boston ACO (which just last week flew and certified the large flat panel display in the Columbia! So, they've now approved everything and we'll be delivering this first plane next week! - hey, it's only been 5 years and !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!$. We'll be announcing a bit of a party scheduled for the 24th "officially". Also just packaged a big investment deal so we're now off and running.
