We have had to suspend resumption of testing of the CarterCopter in Texas because our chief test pilots was an instructor in the USAF. He has been called up & understand we may not see him for a while. We were due to fly again this week-end after a 6 week break.

On the news just now was word that the Israelis are more or less giving Arafat an ultimatum, declare support for the US anti-terrorist side or be treated as part of the terrorists who will be targeted.

It is also said that the Israelis have invaded Gaza but am not clear on the purpose of extent.

We also think that China might be tightening up its border controls base on wife having gone thru yesterday. We can't say for sure but the queues at border were many times longer than normal on exiting China.

Cheers
