Give me a chance and a purpose and I can come up with full names and addresses for the ones that I know of. The quest for that info will surely lead to others....

I don't think any of US really consider SP part of GA, but it makes sense to the FAA's PR Dept to lump it in that way so they can advertise the growth of 'GA'...
I've just returned from Oshkosh (my 23rd convention). It was good for me except for the heat. Attendance by people was down about 1/3 or the same as...
Dan, Thanks for the great list of UL seminars. This was an improvement this year and I made a point to attend several. The main EAA forums had a great ...

A cheaper twin mark, a cheaper twin. Hope Rob sells many Euro Fox within the next few months because after that he will have some real competition. Abid ...
... Well with the Sonex, there are some extra costs, mostly extra hardware and stuff you need to buy to complete the kit. This isn't figured into the kit cost...
Sonex is a full year plus build project if you can work 2 to 3 days every week on it. That's 8 hour days. Two people built 2 of them here. They rentred storage...
$5k for a Sonex kit ... you should have jumped on that. Even the $10k isn't bad. Take it, I would say. Its a cut little airplane when its done. Abid...

Help! Need to find a source for a pair of light-weight aluminum rims that will take a 4.00/4.80-8 tire [looks like a wheelbarow tire]. The bearings go on a...
My friend Paul got the quick build for 14 thou from the factory! 10 large may be a good deal. The layout, cut, drill and cut fit and jig, weld your own kit is...

I agree with you mostly. Sonex is a cute little plane and building it would be great if you have the time. I heard about RV-12 but have not seen it and in case...
Probably right. I would veer towards the "Jabiru" engines more than the AeroVee. I have seen and flown in 2 Sonex with both jabiru and AeroVee. I think if you...
