Aero-News Quote of the Day

"It is hard, because we get so many invitations and we simply cannot accept them all, or be part of all of them. That is the biggest challenge, to be able to do the many things that the people who appreciate us would like to see us do. We are pretty high on the learning curve, and of course we will never stop learning, but we've been doing this for ten years now and we know what we are doing. I am not concerned for the health of the organization, it will be healthy and it will stay there. We may not be very profitable, but that's all right -- we're established. My concern is the expectations of people, that we can actually meet them."
