Hey PJ! Good to see you here!
You will find this place to be a little (no ALOT!) quieter but the small town atmosphere is a nice contrast to the big city living!
Perhaps we will see you at OSH!?!
This year we are going to have a Rivetbangers beer sampling!
I proposed that everyone bring a case of their hometown, favorite ale to OSH and we can all sample them!
It was a very popular idea!

My name is pat and I'm a refugee. I'm taking my first step in this 12step program
Or should I say deprogram. Im not dissatisfied with VAF as there is a lot of info there. Some good some not. I've posted a few times, if I thought I could contribute. There seem to be a few there that post dissertations which in turn gives them expert status and those that don't pay or post are denigrated as "lurkers" I don't get it? Anyway it's good to be back

I"m an old RV web surfin' guy. I remember the old Yahoo! newsgroup days when people would say to search the archives before posting so they don't get redundant posts. HA! Wait... some are now saying that on VAF!
I like VAF okay. I will gladly help any builder who needs it and that place is CHOCK FULL OF 'EM!
They also help me! That is why I like these forums. I like this one because it is FOR enthusiasts and BY enthusiasts!
Nice work, Spike!

Pat, what are you working on? What are your plans?
Are you planning, building, buying?

currently Im working on an 8a model with the showplanes cowl and fastback. Im hoping to fly this summer. I also fly a citabria 7KCAB for fun. Stein is working the panel as we speak for the RV. I havent posted any pics because I have strayed from the plans a bit and other than a HRII it seems to create controversy.
