Hi Marc,

Nice to hear from you again. Yes I am still holding some ATRO, just marking time during this period as the F-16 contract winds to a conclusion. We might get a few quarters of negative Y/Y EPS earnings comparisons unless the company can replace the lost F-16 revenues. Comments in the latest earnings report indicates management thinks it can cover this revenue nut. But even if revenues do dip for a quarter or two the stock is very fairly priced and the longer term prospects look very good. This has been a great management team and they have grown this company very nicely since I first bought my shares in 1995.

This is a keeper right now, accumulate if funds become available, buy like mad if the stock drops to lower levels.

Take care and good luck.

Chris ...
