Default Visit to ADI - No news to share

I just got back from another trip to Vegas where I spent some time with the ADI and GJ folks.

They are a great bunch. I really enjoyed the time out there and they could not have been nicer. They are working hard to provide the hobby with quality releases, and have been successfully doing so for quite some time.

Just wanted to publicly thank Elliot, Chris, and Zack.

BTW - Zack, sorry for narcing you out!

Steve

As far as I am concerned, most people in this hobby are good folks. There are a few bad apples here and there, but mostly, there are a lot of complainers.

It just ain't worth it.

Remember the days when we had diecast with terrible landing gear, and horrible decals that peeled?

My theory is as follows. If you don't like it, don't buy it. Don't complain cause we're lucky to have the options we do.

Who'da thought we would have great 707, 720, DC-9, etc, moulds just six or seven years ago?

Smile They're the best.

Pardon me,
I forgot that I was dealing with an anal crowd here and many don't understand satire when it is read.

I'll have to make sure and post lots of smiley faces when sarcasm is used

Completely missed the satire...

My bad and my apologies.

I am so used to seeing flame wars break out I was overly defensive.

Sorry.

I agree...The people at ADI/Gemini Jets are great people. They had a big hand on our side in helping us get our business up and running.
