Re: Are you interested in a new Palladium Open House?
Just now seeing this (don't get out here much anymore) but if I were able to vote I'd vote for 2019 as well. That would give PB the best opportunity to both get caught up production-wise and plan out a killer POH without having to sacrifice one for the other.

I've done a couple (one of which is in my Flickr PB Samples set), but not the L-20. I'm about to have to do the NG-202 Rail Gun and the NG E-12 Plasma Ejector as they're what the hover platform is packing on those side mounts; if those turn out well I could give the L-20 a shot if you're needing one.
