A sincere thanks to all the great folks on this list without whose help the task would have been much more difficult. Special koddos to Tim Olson, Dave M, Dave Saylor, Matt, Gary, Albert, Deems, William C.,Scott, Kelly M, Jesse, Stein, Bob C., John C., Jae C., and anyone else whom I may have forgotten.
For the newbees starting their projects this forum will yield to you a better and safer aircraft and the opportunity to meet (even electronically) a great group of fine folks. Read Matt's rules - be positive, and do not be afraid to ask what you might think is a foolish question. Respect and helpfulness keeps this a great forum. Fly safe - have fun

A real big CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
Now the real question, was it better then sex? 
I have 70 hours on mine and right now it is in the paint shop. I am in severe withdrawal. Last night I even emptied the dish washer. The wife is about to kick me out. It's like hide and seek. I hide things where I think they are supposed to go and then she has to seek them out because they aren't where she expects them. So some advise, when you get ready to send it off for paint, be prepared. I wasn't.
The 10 sure is a real pleasure to fly

Congrats Mike... now the fun doesn't just start, it continues! At first glance your builder # looked exactly like mine... 40636 bvs.40663. Have fun, and may we all meet up during this great adventure.

Fantastic news Mike. Way to go on posting your first flight on Vans
site. I need to get something up there before the calendar clicks over
another year. I wonder how many Vans Aircraft are really flying?
Regardless you now have your own flying -10; enjoy and please fly safe!
I will see you are OSH in 2010.
Robin

Hi Mike!
Doesn't time fly? It seems like yesterday that we were building our tail kit with you at Wally's in Eugene Oregon. We are so jealous! Congratulations. Wish things worked out for us to finish our kit, but we STILL have not sold our farm. Making money though at the famres' market, and flying our Grumman Tiger when we can- but so much slower than you will be flying! We just hired a new Realtor who raised our price on the farm and told us he WILL sell it. He made no ambiguities about that. Then maybe we can get a high performance plane...
Congratulations again Mike. We can send you a CD of a lot of pictures I just found on a blank CD of our experience at Wally's with you! I thought I had lost it.
Brian and Ruth
