Re: Oct 7 Fall Foliage and Chili Fly-In at 1P1

As a seven Builder the twelve is so different I really cannot offer much advice as to its construction. However I do know some friends that do not correspond in this board t...

Re: Black Otter 2017

The beer tasting is in Homebuilt Camping under the new pavillion.

It is on Sunday evening around 5. Meet me there and I will brief you on the rest!

Paullie, do you have wheels?

Re: Too quiet for the week before OSH

...thinking a Saturday afternoon arrival for me.

I am in Cleveland now at my cousin's house. Looks like Saturday is the day most likely for t-storms as of right now.

Could be a circuitous trip around the storms!

Re: Info needed for engine purchase

Yup, what Mikey said is all true!

I was thrilled to get one of the last Mattitucks, bu tperhaps the best deat out there is a factory new Lycoming or if you can find a good builder a Superior or ECI would be a good option also.

Enjoy the build!

I remember that feeling very well! It is nice to build only one of something instead of two in opposite mirror images. Keep us posted! See you at the show very soon!

He was there from the first rivet and through Phase 1 and beyond. He attended Agent Orange and Allison's Anniversary in New Y...
