And this is a plane that the United States of America should have our Air Force One was 35, 36 years old, and it would be parked next to the new ones like this, and it really didn't look appropriate for our country. So we're very proud of this. The country is very proud of it. And you can do two things: You can low-key it, or you can show it. And I think the country should be very proud of it.
