[b]How very interesting this is about stealing planes and flying them nearby to Connecticut to dissassemble it. And, then bring it back to Rhinebeck after it had been disguised and re-registered. . . . I believe the board was aware of the situation. They hired GD back after he had been fired. . . . So, nobody thinks the idea of using ORA as a front to sell stolen planes is plausible? The more I think about it, the members on the board are not stupid like we would want them to be (everyone is supposed to think they are inexperienced and inept). They are shrewd, conniving, cold and calculating.

Wait just a cotton-picking minute.
It is obvious that there is something not-quite-right with DeMarco and his continued employment, but in my opinion he's more a sympton than a cause. Somehow, he's worked it so he's got full run of the place and he's using it to every advantage for as long as he can. Personally, I don't think Demarco gives a hang
what happens to ORA, one way or the other, so long as he can benefit, and he seems like a guy who could find a way to benefit from anything.
With regards to the idea that the Board are some sort of crime syndicate operating a black market of antique aeroplanes, let's just stop and
think for a minute. IF that was what they were up to, and IF they're as smart as this theory requires them to be, why on God's green earth would they do so many things to call attention to themselves? As AAC pointed out, no one's counting but this thread has reached a ridiculous length, and popular opinion is that the Board knows about it and follows it. (Hiya, fellas.) There have been newspaper and magazine articles about the situation at ORA, not to mention the circus they created around Chris Rogine. If they were really setting up an aero-chop shop, wouldn't they have done everything they could to AVOID any big visible changes at ORA?
Nobody who isn't already in prison is that stupid.
