Sounds like a good time. My attendance at this year's event was traded for an Alaskan Cruise later this week for my Spouse and I. Po' boys can't do it all, we have to pick and chose.
I heard about that straight CJ that Doug bought down for Barry, the one from the Chinese demo team. Might be a good platform for a "killer" CJ.

A note on the straight CJ that Doug brought to ARS... it is beautiful and has one of the best airframes I've seen. It was a close second in my final decision making before choosing to purchase Jeff Linebaugh's excellent machine. Also, check out the "emergency brake" mod with the red handle in the middle of the panel that Doug put in. It may be the next thing that we all "just gotta have".

So, do we have any pictures of this cool CJ? I'm looking forward to
seeing or getting pictures of Batman's new CJ as well.

Al,
Not much to see that would show up in photos, except that it is nearly 100%
free of any rash of any kind, it is simply very low time and very clean, and
100% stock. It's seldom that you can find a CJ that you can strip all the
paint off of and not find either a bunch of bondo, stop drilled cracks or
signs of old skin work. This CJ is 100% stock, every skin has the proper
anodized treatments, there are two very small doublers just behind the top
cowl and that's the only repairs I could find on the aircraft. It flies
hands off and burns little if any oil which is absolutely amazing to me, but
since it has a "since NEW" engine on it, maybe I should not be too
surprised, anyway it should give us all hope. On the way down from WA it
was burning about 11.5 GPH (at) 145KTS. I don't think I have ever flown a CJ
that was so solid in all respects.
The brake mod worked well, and will be available for sale in a month or so.
Placement of the actuating handle will change to a more convenient location,
most likely just aft of the throttle handle.
Hal's CJ: (I saw it on the way back from ARS) but was sworn to not utter a
word. I can tell you my reaction to looking at the aircraft was pretty much
described by alternating words like "HOLEY SH*!" and "WOW!!
Always Yakin,
Doug Sapp
