 Rick, are you saying that the 1500shp, 350-knot, six-seater Epic being built
 at your (I'm told) impressively large facility is the same as a builder
 going through an assist program like Lancair's? Does that mean that your
 Epic customers are going to hitch up their trailers or rig a truck to take
 their planes home and complete them? Of course professional builders stretch
 the FAA envelope but most of these are (very) small businesses - not
 businesses with millions of dollars of investment capital targeted at the
 development and manufacture of a far more complex aircraft than any complex
 kit a builder could actually make himself. It seems to me that to equate
 Epic's build program with these one-person or very small shops and/or
 Lancair's builder assist program taxes even your considerable salesmanship
 capabilities.
