Once again its been awhile since I posted anything. I will try and do better but we have been so busy.

Paint Shop: The Paint Shop continues to thrive. We are not turning out aircraft as fast as we would like but this is mostly due to more demand than resources. Besides the Paint Shop, most of the painters have their own VAs and they juggle time between them. Recently, we all got hit with either the flu bug or massive work loads at our real jobs, or like me, both. We should start cranking out the jets again soon. From the looks of the queue, we are doing pretty good. We have several repeat customers lined up. When people return thats always a good sign.

Directory: I am still working on revamping the directory. I am trying to get it so we the VAs can have more options to be found by. When I am not painting or listing people, I am working on the directory. Its a slow process but one I am slowly making progress on.

Listings: We are almost to 140 VAs. While that does not sound like a lot, we have had over 200 list. Each week this number fluctuates as we add new VAs and remove VAs that have closed or vanished. Patrick does a great job surveying the VAs and we remove the VAs that have fallen inactive so our directory stays clean and only contains known active VAs.

On the Horizon: We have plenty of ideas cooking. I hope we can announce the new ideas in the comming month. We hope the VA community like the ideas and that some VAs will actually benefit from them.

Til next time,

Jerel
