Over the past 2 1/2 years this list has grown to become my aviation
family, and so it's only fitting that I pause and THANK YOU all for the
help and support I've received from you and to wish you a MERRY
CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR

warning what follows is off topic.

PS. Some have noticed the the daily updates to my website haven't been
occurring. I'm receiving some off-line e-mail queries about why, so I
thought I'd post here to save some time.

Last Wed. I experienced what the FAA calls 'a disqualifying event'. The
medical term is Transient Global Amnesia (TGA). In lay terms I
permanently 'lost' from 9am to 3pm of that day. Judy took me to the
emergency room where they did their diagnostics. Her description of the
events that transpired during the episode are comical in retrospect, but
I assure you there was nothing funny about it at the time. I have a
small recognition of the onset of the episode, and what I recall was
terrifying. Once the episode passed, and memory, and the ability to form
new memory returned, my biggest concern once I learned this was not a
life-threatening event was my future wrt to aviation, the RV-10
community and my project. I spent a very sleepless night in the hospital
during which I resigned myself to selling the project and retiring from
aviation as I suspected that the FAA would not look favorably on the
experience. Needless to say, having had this dream/ambition for so long
and having postponed it during the family/career years, and to be within
weeks of realizing it, I've been a little bummed these past few days.

The good news is that TGA, while largely enigmatic to the medical
community, as to cause, appears to be completely benign, with no
residual health effects or implications, and the likelihood of
recurrence for me is only marginally greater than the general
population. When I was released Thurs. the 1st thing I did once at home
was to begin my own research courtesy of Google, and the associated
medical & FAA databases. I've read numerous medical papers/studies
published on the syndrome, learned about as much as a layman can. And
despite the initial anxiety that this produced, I'm becoming more and
more convinced of the favorable prognosis.

After taking a couple of days to 'chill out' and smell the roses, I have
begun to wrestle with the personal decision regarding my aviation
related future. I won't bother you with the decision process but, during
my research of FAA Flight Surgeon advisory letters, I've learned that it
may be possible with a special issuance medical to continue my romance
with aviation, the downside is that the FAA wants to wait 1 year as a
precaution to ensure that the episode is not masking any other
neurological anomalies. I've confirmed all of this the other day during
a consultation with my AME, Dr. Farrod (who is exclusively dedicated to
aviation medicine). I'll begin collecting the data from the hospital
within a week or two so as to have it ready, when / if special issuance
time comes around. So for now, I'm grounded. As of the writing of this
note, I'm inclined to continue and somehow find a way to stretch 1-2
months of remaining work into 12 and not go crazy each time I read/hear
about one of the expected 100 completion's I expect we'll see next year.
So for the time being, the updates may be slower to non-existent. If
they resume, Their frequency will likely be reduced.

I debated on whether to put this note out to the 'list' but I didn't
want to 'disappear' and become the next James McClow and the subject of
John Cox whimsical posts! Please rest assured, that I am physically and
mentally OK, there are no restrictions on any of my activities (other
than piloting) and there is no treatment required or necessary.
If I decide to continue perhaps I'd use some of next year to help
organize and work on an RV-10 Piloting and Safety program. The content
of such a program would obviously require considerable input from the
community.

Merry Christmas, Deems. Sorry to hear about your "episode". Too bad
this had to happen when you are so close to flying your RV-10.
Hopefully all will work out for the best.

If you learn how to start such an episode, let me know. There are a few
days of my memory I wouldn't mind deleting from my files (the day I
married my second wife, for example...).

Deems,

I really hope you convince yourself to stay on with the RV-10
project. You're a tremendous asset to the community, and
a great guy to boot.

Please, don't take offense. You know me, I try to look
for humor in everything...the funniest times in my life
have been some of the ones where I was bleeding from something. Wink

Now: I think you should look at this as an "opportunity". You
know, you, of everyone, are the king of the "mod" or "improvement".
So, if ANYONE can stretch an RV-10 build out by another year,
I'm sure you can. Heck, what you think was only a couple weeks
left could have easily been 6 months anyway, while you perfected
things. So my take on it is, you're just going to be forced to
have the nicest RV-10 out there!

Jack,

I haven't figured out how I did it yet, but I was able to
remove 95% of my memories of school...pre-college. Not much
of that time period in school was too fun, so I'm not
disappointed with that. It leaves me more time to focus on
the present, which I have to say is MUCH more interesting.
I did retain the memory of all the fun things in those
years though.

I also successfully removed almost all memories of my first
marriage, which is a real bonus!

Merry Christmas, Deems.

It's hard to know what to say. At least the FAA seems far more
tolerant of medical problems today than 20 years ago when I started
flying. We are all rooting for you.

Very easy solution. Keep building while your wonderful wife who has loved you tremendously and who will continue to love you, shows you her love again by getting her pilot's license. Every pilot needs a good co pilot, I'll leave the decision of who gets to play which role up to you.

Keep pluggin away, great to hear it is not life threatening!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Deems,

Having met you at Osh Kosh and been a frequent visitor to your web site, I for one would greatly miss the help and support that you have provided. There are always alternatives and more than one solution to problems. Take some time and consider things. I'm sure that you will come up with something to either get you in the air or to keep you motivated and working improving your 10. In reality, a year is not a long time.

Merry Christmas,

George Costigan

Deems,

All I can say is that I hope all works out and they don't delay your
medical beyond a reasonable special issuance timeline. I can't even
imagine your emotions as you thought the dream had been shattered.

Now, as to the next year or so... I have some remaining fiberglass
finishing work that you would be extremely well suited for...

Take care and best wishes.

Bob

Deems

I am thankful that you are okay and look forward to a long and continuing
association with our wonderful RV10 family.

I think back to the time when Tim Olsen was about to finish his plane and
start flying. I was concerned for a short time that we were going to lose a
wonderful go-to guy from the ranks of builder to that of a pilot and watch
his contact and involvement slowly fade away. Thankfully, Tim is as active
as ever and I trust Deems that you will be doing the same.

Get that beautiful piece of aeronautical workmanship into the air so that
when your all signed off you'll be ready to jump in and go.

Merry Christmas,

Deems,

I wish you the best and while anytime would be unfortunate for this type of event, this time of year is especially unfortunate to hear news like this. I hope for a pleasant outcome and that you will once again be able to achieve the fruition of your dream. After you have done all your research on the subject are are comfortable, I highly encourage you to complete the aircraft, even if you have to have someone else fly off the test period so that once the FAA is satisfied, you can then continue your dream. Through some particularly trying times in my life, working on my -10 was just the distraction I needed to keep my mind occupied, productive and possibly kept me from falling down the slippery slope of despair. Best wishes, good luck, have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Deems,

I am so sorry to hear about your situation. I'm pleased that it is not
medically serious for you, but I cant imagine the frustration around your RV
dream. Just for the record our RV is taking a year longer than planned,
mostly due to a slow, part time painter. This has allowed me to do a lot
more detail on the interior while he paints individual sections.

Happy holidays!!

First, I hope you are motivated by the support from all of the responses
on the list. You have made some huge contributions and I appreciate your
words. I am impressed by your phenomenal attitude and even a little humor
at the end of your post. I pray you will be able to continue your dream and
add to the other comments of being thankful you are okay.

Merry Christmas to all,

Merry Christmas, Deems. Sorry to hear about your "episode". Too bad

Hopefully all will work out for the best.

If you learn how to start such an episode, let me know. There are a few

Deems, you can rest assured there will be nothing "Whimsical" from my
posts this week. You have been my inspiration and balance with your
passion, hard work, tenaciously creative efforts and measurable
progress. Sometimes temporary setbacks spark even greater
accomplishments down the road of life. I hold hope for many more safe
and healthy pilots flying RV-10s in the coming months and years just
like You and Judy. I immediately shared with my wife (and build partner
your news). As I reflected, I knew in my heart that this next year
should be even better for you and Judy in "Living the Dream".

We are blessed to live in such a wonderful country "One Nation Under
God" with this liberty and freedom, with the community encouragement to
be entrepreneurial and pursue those dreams, and the tolerance of others
and their dreams, too. It was only hours later, after your post, that
my wife and I received word by telephone that a tragic death which took
place here in Oregon a few days ago had reached out and directly touched
our "First Family" of RV-10 builders with a loss of a loved one. This
week, this last month and certainly this last year has caused a great
deal of reflection on what is truly important to us.

To you and your family's continued good health, to the enjoyment of
RV-10s, We wish you a speedy and full recovery. Just consider this a
practice approach stall in the pattern of life. You are in our prayers
and those damned Bill O'Reilly "Secular Progressives" on this list can
just take a nap for a year. Looking forward to seeing you.

Over the past 2 1/2 years this list has grown to become my aviation
family, and so it's only fitting that I pause and THANK YOU all for the
help and support I've received from you and to wish you a MERRY
CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR

warning what follows is off topic.

I debated on whether to put this note out to the 'list' but I didn't
want to 'disappear' and become the next James McClow and the subject of
John Cox whimsical posts! Please rest assured, that I am physically and
mentally OK, there are no restrictions on any of my activities (other
than piloting) and there is no treatment required or necessary.
If I decide to continue perhaps I'd use some of next year to help
organize and work on an RV-10 Piloting and Safety program. The content
of such a program would obviously require considerable input from the
community.

Deems,
Wish you and your family the best during the Chrismas Holiday.  I hope you continue on and get that RV10 flying. I may be flying to Mesa early next week..........if you feel up to it would you wanna go for a ride around AZ in 805HL?
God Bless,
DEAN

Deems, good luck to you. When we were young, a year took forever, now we are
not so young it seems to pass very quickly so a year will be gone in no time
at all. I'm looking forward to your "extra" creativity you'll no doubt
invest in your 10.
Merry Christmas to you and to all the list.
