Aero-News Quote of the Day

"I just canceled my subscription to the newsletter and I wanted to tell you why. I have no problem with ANN. I think you have a great and worthy publication. It is just that since the Great Recession combined with onerous FAA regs caused me to shut down my avionics business 5 years ago, I am not as interested in aviation as I once was.
