<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">What do you think were some of the most breakthrough or pivotal pattern
designs? When I started there the Prophecy was top dog. A couple
years later the Smaragd was designed. I see a lot of planes have been
designed off the Smaragd platform. I think the PassPort is a heck of a
plane.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">What do you guys think have been some break-out designs over the
years that have transformed pattern aircraft design? In the last nine
years, I¢d say the Smaragd was the most transformational plane.</span></p>
