REFLECTOR:Grand Rapids Technologies-EFIS

[velocity xl]

If you are looking to make something for airplanes and  to sell them
the Eye Ball vents fall right up there with the best of them.
$172 a piece and the average velocity needs 6 that's $1032.00
just to get some fresh air. Seams like a lot of profit margin
in that price.
