No, it is not sponsored by Starbucks. Not yet. No, it is not sponsored by Starbucks yet. I'm going to see it retroactively if we can get a sponsor. Should be sponsored by Dow Egbert, man. That's right. It's good stuff. It's a great idea. So yes, thanks for listening in on whatever platform that you are doing so, thanks for being a part of this podcast

with us. We always enjoy having you guys here. So those of you watching and also listening,

thanks so much for all that you do for us. Got a lot of updates today. We do. We do. And the,

first and foremost, the first one we're going to talk about today is something that we just

actually sent an email out about. Hopefully you're on that email list that you get all our updates because it's a fantastic little situation. If you're not, you can. FlightTest.com slash newsletter. Flytest.com slash newsletter. If you want to hear from us on a semi-regular basis. Because we're hardly ever on the social media. Yeah. Right. That's true. Yeah. Just kidding. No, but yes, flighttest.com slash newsletter. If you want to get all the awesome, cool updates that we have. And one of those updates was A main hobbies. And Hobbytown USA. Yeah. And Hobby Town USA, that's right. Awesome. And safe to say, we finished off a crazy quarter of a year. Starting about maybe two weeks before Flight Fest all the way up until just last week is when we finally got back to our routine.

But one thing that's really evident is a majority of our community is on the West Coast. And we don't serve that community well because if they want to buy a silly phone board airplane from us, they're going to spend the same amount as a silly phone board airplane. And we really want them to be able to get that economically, have a great time, great experience, and not have it be a lot of money. By the way, I call them silly phone board airplanes because it's really what the memories they make, the experience they make is what's the value. I take them very seriously, personally. Shame on here, then.

They're the most serious of all seriousness.

But here's the cool thing.

They have an amazing facility.

Amazing, you know, customer support.

Their shipping is incredible.

We really wanted to see what they did.

But the biggest thing is we want to get our products on the West Coast so people don't have to spend a lot of money to get it. Yeah, just to dial back just one step. For people that don't know what A Maine is,
