Hello all and welcome to the Third annual North American Design Competition sponsored by Valliant. My name is Boeing Flight Simulator and I will be the host of this year's competition alongside ThePessimist and GJ. We are happy to welcome you to this year's competition and hope you have as much fun designing as we did setting this up for you all. Now without further adieu we will get into the guidelines for this year's competition.
