I am sorry you have such negative feelings toward Velocity. My partners and
I do not share your opinions. I respectfully suggest you divest your
interest in your Velocity and either be involved in a traditional plane or
go to an experimental better suited to your needs and requirements. An
experimental is just that. If you can not stand the heat, get out of the
kitchen.


Respectfully
