Spoke to my buddy at AW a few days ago and he told me that his Trini sidekick whom I've also met, was hired by the T&T government to be part of the support team for the 2 birds.. It's very cool to see a fellow Trini come full circle on this project. He helped built it in the US and now he's helping to maintain them in Trinidad.. Good luck Chris
