Great. Hopefully mine come in pretty quick. There on back order of course.

I'm trying to decide on which strobes to get. Can't wait to see all yours installed.

I'm trying to recruit several planes to come to your event by the way.

Weather so far looking good.

I just picked up the new Whelen Orion lights at sun n fun. Hope to have them installed soon. Do you know any specific information that may help me or my mechanic? Do you like them? Are they bright? Thanks.
