Aero-News Quote of the Day

“I am so proud of the team’s level of perseverance and the many obstacles that we had to overcome in the last 10 months. There were numerous times where we didn’t know what was going to come — we had an extended winter break, our regionals were pushed to February, all of our meetings and practices were socially distanced and we had very little time for the team to come together. We were taken out of our comfort zone.”
