For discussion and exchange of information related to the Wittman Tailwind, Nesmith Cougar, and similar aircraft, like the Buttercup, Big X, Daphne, Fourrunner and O&O--focus is on building and flying designs by Steve Wittman and related designs and modifications by others. Pictures can also be posted if moderate size.

The picture was taken at Baraboo, with Valerie's W-8 in the background and the Master Tailwind Builder Jim Clement. I think one of the ladies is Valerie, but I have never met her in person so I am not sure. The BARABOO flyin/drivein/walkin this year was the best ever with presentations and a number of new visitors. Lots of information shared on Tailwinds, Cougars, Buttercups and the variants thereof. Thanks to all of the Baraboo folks that host this event!!

For builders and other interested folks, all of the old newsletters can be found in the "Files" section. Also there is a lot of other helpful construction information in the Files Section and many pictures of construction and flying in the Photos Section.

The West Coast Tailwind Fly-in is now held annually at the Fresno Chandler Airport and is scheduled for Sunday October 4. Come on down for lunch and great discussions of Wittman designs--All aircraft and drive-in/walk-ins welcome.
