 Australia, Brazil, Canada, New Zealand, Poland, Russia, S Africa,  

 and yes a couple from the USofA. And I have 127 color images of  

 painted and flying RV-10s - WOW what a variety and development  

 lineage to celebrate.  Yes, Randy all white flying airframes  

 awaiting color vinyl appliqué counts as painted but boy does color  

 add Panache.



 As I load up my cooler to depart from the Left Coast for Sun N'Fun,  

 I can't help but reflect on just one year ago when we all lost  

 Hamilton Cartwright after his ill-fated attempt to get to SNF '08  

 through bad weather ENROUTE,.  Deems... may every flight be a safe  

 adventure and provide you it's just reward.  To the rest of you, fly  

 safe.  Tomorrow holds the promise of many more RV-10s (1,000+) and a  

 breathtaking flight line at OSH '09 and into the future.



 Deems, your DAR is to be thanked for providing a great Phase One OPS  

 Area.  Don't make any mistake with other passengers aboard.   

 Arlington awaits in early July with a Plaque having your name on it.



 What an inspiration !!!!!!!!!

Congrats on #950.  As for the therapy--when I return home from work and get 

to go to my garage and work on my plane--that's all the therapy I need.  It 

may or may not ever fly in my time (atleast at the rate I'm going) but 

atleast there's the hope and dreams of one day actually putting air under 

all these parts I've been working on for the last few years and actually 

getting to call it a "plane".  I realize that Mike was just fooling but in 

all seriousness there's times I think I should just sell the -10 and buy 

something that I can fly NOW.  However, after a few minutes working on the 

project I remember how much fun that just getting to work on this project 

is. That's enough to put all those thoughts way behind me and make me wonder 

why I'd ever think about selling my baby.



You won't regret it.



Bill

Tom congrats on the decision.  May you indeed be the next Davis.  We need web stimulation.

  

 50 more to go.  Hope to meet you at SNF -  11:00AM any morning at the Vans Tent..

Welcome to the group. Alexander is a GREAT way to start. I went the same route when I started. If he is still there Jacob is a wealth of knowledge and extremely good at what he does, but then again so were all of the folks there that helped. You will be tired at the end of the day but will be so excited at the immediate progress you see you will have the first installation of the 'RV grin'. What you learn there will help you the entire project. You have taken the leap and started the project, enjoy the ride.
