Here is a link to a developing local story. The government around here kind of stuck it to these guys in the last few years so it will be interesting to see how this all pans out. I think it was a huge mistake to cancel the contract in the first place. The government around here is fairly corrupt, dishonest, broke,untrustworthy....take your pick or use them all. Looks like they rolled the dice and lost on this one.

Wayne Coulson states the Mars will be on the water Wednesday for 10:00 a.m. crew training.

Hawaii Mars is back in the water as of late Tuesday :D
You can just make out a completely repainted Philippine Mars patiently waiting at the rear.

So what is the deal with no contracts for big piston engined aircraft? Way more efficient than the jets I see on the news and much better power response and slow flight characteristics.
