REFLECTOR: Infinity Stick Grips

[Randy Wharton]

Terry,

When I was at the factory for the Head Start program last year, I
took lots of pictures of everything I could find. One of the
Velocities there had a side stick mounted for the co-pilot that I
thought was interesting. I have a  photo of it on my website. A
direct link to the page is

the photo for a high-res jpg.

Regards,
Randy Wharton
