The "A.M. Report"

EDIT: I'm posting this a day late due to a couple issues with it.

 I'm considering an "AirshipModeler Report" to summarize the goings on of AirshipModeler over the past week or month as the amount of activity dictates.

Today I am presenting a special version of the first ever A.M. Report.
