Talk about motivation to build...even though I am only finishing up my tail assembly, I am ready to get all the other components to push forward. Hope to have it in the air and at the next ASA meeting next year. Thanks to all for your advice and direction.

Ok, planning for next year. Its a bit far for a day VFR flight in October. You guys in Kansas want to host me overnight and I'll join you for the jump to Crossville?

I love seeing the faces for the names I have seen hundreds of times over the years. I could easily walk up and identify many people and I wonder if they would even know who the hell I am. I have met people at various fly-ins since then and hope I am around long enough to become one of those familiar faces at events such as this.

On a side note, where does one get that Sonexfoundation.org shirt, I want one!
