reportBlankHow many are around here? I'm pretty sure that in 6-12 months I'll belooking for one, but I haven't really been around them a lot, and have neverhad a chance to fly in one. I'd be glad to buy someone's lunch and gas inexchange for a ride. It would be nice to get to know a few owners as well.I did see an Air Camper and a Sky Scout at the Reklaw fly-in last year, doesanyone here ever make it to Reklaw?Thanks for any information!Steve RuseIrving, TX---________________________________________________________________________________

reportBlankJim,Reklaw is a great fly-in, south of Tyler near Jacksonville, TX. Near 300planes last year I believe. Just a BIG grass strip in the middle of nowhere,the fly-in is a weekend event late in October (last weekend every October, Ibelieve). There is plenty of food on site, and you can camp there or take ashuttle to a nearby hotel if you aren't that adventurous. I don't mindtents, but the lack of showers means I'll be staying in a hotel. I'llprobably fly down from Grayson on Friday or Saturday morning.More info:http://www.globalair.com/discussions/Ge ... =363Thanks for the information, its good to hear about so many underconstruction! I'll have to make the rounds before long and see some ofthese projects. I'd like to see your videos, what is the best way to getthem? My e-mail should be able to handle at least a 30Mb attachment if youwant to send them direct: steve(at)wotelectronics.com.Thanks for the information!Steve Ruse405-209-9010 -----Original Message-----

Larry:Congratulations on your purchase! My father and I did the same thing lastfall when we bought Kerri Anne Price's airplane and hauled it home. Westill don't have it assembled yet, due to some details, but we are workingtoward making it a queen of the sky again. We are located just north ofWaynesboro, VA by about an hours' drive. If you need any help, please letme know. In fact, I'd be interested in coming down just to see 44MH.Again, if you need a hand, let me know!Brett PhillipsStrasburg, VASo, in about two weeks, atrailer will head east to Waynesboro, VA and haul backHowards plane. I will figure out how to fly it alittle bit at a time. I intend to become more activeas time and y'all allow. I talked to Howard by phonethis morning and he was very helpful with my questionsabout the plane and it's engine. I used to check intothe EAA ham radio net many years ago and chew the ragwith Howard and many others.....So, I appologize for the jinx and resultant curse Ihave put on this forum.=====Larry NelsonSpringfield, MOBeechcraft Bonanza V-35B N2980A1963 GMC 4106-1618SV/ Spirit of AmericaARS WB0JOT________________________________________________________________________________Date: Wed, 25 Aug 2004 12:22:00 -0400
