Poland - Electric.

[Bill Glaze]

Another question:
Are we (the Team Trials being "we") selecting an airplane or pilot?
And, after this pilot is selected, is it not up to him to determine what
equipment he will do best with, albeit something that wasn't flown at
the TT?  (Perhaps wasn't ready for prime time at the Trials?)
I don't know either.  But I've heard the same thing as Eric.
