<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">For those of you who attended the meeting in Beijing, and for those of you who will read about it in the meeting minutes, Boeing has confirmed their intent not to renew their FSEMC membership
and, as such, has relinquished their position on the steering committee. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">This creates a vacancy on the steering committee which, under the FSEMC operating procedures, can be filled for the duration of the vacated term through appointment by the steering committee
Chairman. </span><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">In consideration of our desire to expand our FSEMC initiatives in the China and Asia Pacific region, and in recognition of how difficult conducting business in this part of the world
can be without having a physical presence in that region, I offer for your consideration the appointment of ACCEL Flight Simulation, Tianjin, China to the position vacated by Boeing. In a short period of time, ACCEL has become a member, presenter and strong
supporter of FSEMC, and their influence in the region and with the CAAC, I believe, will be of great benefit to our organization. ACCEL would be represented on the steering committee by Dr. Ding Yuanyuan (aka Martin).</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
