I'm confident that it will become a reality Kelly. I've been in the business for many years [design and product development]. I've always wanted to go my own way and to be able to now, w/ an aviation related product line is really a dream, in a way. However, dreams don't get the job done. There is no question that there is some hard work ahead and some tough decisions to be made. With time, patience and perseverance it'll get done.
