The ABC Board of Trustees would like to extend special thanks to Cooper Gay,
Mendes & Mount, our administrative staff, and all of the ABC insureds, brokers
and underwriters who helped make 2009 another very successful year for the
program, despite the difficult economic conditions. Our Fall Conference in
Indian Wells, California, received much better than expected attendance and
outstanding feedback from attendees. Please mark your calendars for the 2010
Fall Conference, September 19-21 at The Renaissance Vinoy Resort in St.
Petersburg, Florida (for information, see
http://www.aircraftbuilders.com/conference.html).

weather will be like.
