Aerofly pro deluxe and IMAC Judging Class.

[Bill Glaze]

Bob:
Truly a pity that something as progressive and outstanding, as this 
presentation is, was not embraced wholeheartedly by the BOD.  I am not 
exaggerating, when I say that this presentation, if properly handled, 
would obsolete the vide tape we've been using for lo these many years.  
Watching it was really riveting your attention.
