I have been talking to my EAA chapter about them buying my Sky Scoutproject, finishing it, and auctioning it. It is very well built and has aChrysler 2.2 and a GN-1 wing. It will have an airworthiness certificate andthe 40 hours flown off before it goes.I am trying to get an idea on how hard it would be to raffle this plane offand would like to know how many people would probably buy a ticket. Couldyou email me at brian(at)engalt.com if you would likely buy a ticket for it andhow many you would probably buy. Obvioulsy, your answer now does not commityou to anything and I won't harass you later. I am just trying to get anidea if this is feasible or not.We would probably do 250 tickets at $50 each, or maybe 500 at $25 each andwould run it for probably six months or until all the tickets sold,whichever came first. If we did not sell enough tickets to cover the costof the plane we would refund the tickets and just sell the plane. If youwould buy a $25 ticket, but not buy one at $50 let me know that also.Thanks.Brian KrautEngineering Alternatives, Inc.www.engalt.com________________________________________________________________________________Date: Tue, 26 Feb 2008 10:39:28 -0800 (PST)
