<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Great news that the stick base is so good.
Can you at least give us an idea of the price range +/- a couple hundred and a
realistic idea as to when? "We've already heard going to be
expensive." Not to ding ya, Marv, I'm really going to be happy with the
base, but c'mon, you've had the sucker up to final spec for over six months
now. I'm getting close to construction on my (I swear) last cockpit
attempt, and to be perfectly frank, with the possibility of this base, the pit
is going to be built around it. I'm trying to figure out my
options....</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV><FONT face=Verdana><BR>The side stick base was an absolute hit
at the show last week. Lockheed and L3 were all over it. Lockheed
sent 6 real F-16 pilots to test it out and all left with two thumbs up.
The bad news is pricing is going to be really expensive. My cost
is very high to make these.<BR></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
