Hey guys...thanks for the warm greetings...I don't actually own an aircraft, I put down the twin star because thats the aircraft I fly the most these days..( I should probably change that)...
In a nutshell, we’re a company geared towards reigniting the lost spark of aviation. We will also be working on some products analyzing various used aircraft in the marketplace for the prospective buyer. We see an unfortunate lack of enthusiasm and interest in aviation; a trend we see continuing due to prohibitive costs. Obviously, we understand that market forces are a substantial force here, but we hope the industry itself can be saved through a concerted effort and, most importantly, time and patience. We are hoping to both unite the pilot community, while drawing interest back into the industry. I noticed a post earlier whereby a BT member was discussing the vicious circle occurring in the industry. This fellow mentioned that some companies state they have to mark up their products 100x or more, due to the fact that the demand simply isn’t there.

If we can help plant the seed that will bring economies of scale into play, and make aviation more affordable, we will feel satisfied. Till then, its fire and brimstone in trying to make a difference for both those in the industry and those outside. And Keith, we are near RDU.
