I'll almost certainly need a ride
No problem Ian. What I usually do is add a couple seats to the reservation in case we get some last minute guests.
We will organize rides once we get a handle on who is coming and who might have extra seats.
Sorry I have been off the site for a while Painless...thanks for the e-mail.
Yup, I am down for one. I will let you know if there is an additional guest, but none for now. I will also make my truck available for rides from Camp Scholer if needed. Painless, we can work together on that if folks need a lift. I think it is my turn to drive anyway (even though your truck is SOOOO much nicer.)
For those reading this thread who have not yet experieced the Otter...jump in. You will enjoy the night. Nothing to be afraid of...
(well...there is Chad...possibly CJ....me...then there is Painless... well...never mind all that. It is a very enjoyable night and the food is to die for. Who is bringing the AED???)

RV-8A
Wing Kit (Slow Build...very slow build)

Alright change mine to Me +4.
Dan is coming with his father and his father's friend. Dan and his father are building an RV-4 that they bought partially complete, and I know he was working on signing up on the forum, but I don't think it's been approved, so I'm sticking him in my reservation to make sure he gets a spot
Ian
RV-7 SB, chugging toward final assembly
IO-360-C1C 200hp obtained.
Hartzell BA prop received.
James Cowl ordered.
N773WW reserved!
Yep, what Ian said! I will be attending this year with my Dad, and a friend of his. I'm really looking forward to meeting everyone, and getting to know some more builders!!

Thats a total of 27 so far.
I plan to call in the reservation this Friday, so this is last call. Let me know if you have any changes to the number you are signing up for.
BTW....I am sending this from Camp Scholler.....as in EAA Camp Scholler! I set up my camper this evening, and I am happy to report everything is high and dry! At least for the time being. There's a storm bearing down on us as we speak.
Don P and Don M, gottcha down. Calling in the reservation tonight. We have 31 signed up. I'll make the reservation for 35 in case we have any last minute additions.
Reservation for up to 35 are set at the Black Otter. Next order of business is making sure everyone has a ride. Those that have seats available, can you chime in so we know who you are?? Those that need a ride can then make arrangements with you.
Happy hour starts at 5:30-6:00ish with mass quantities being consumed at 7:00.
Again, guys with rides available please post here. Don't want to leave anyone behind.
We will have room for one for sure if we only bring Ben's truck. If my dad brings his vehicle, we'll have room for 5 between the two vehicles. I'll know tomorrow.
