They's a lot of them at Arlington (AWO). On a sunny saturday you can't swing a dead cat without hittin' one.
So I have heard. However, I feel it would be best if I was invited by someone. I have dropped into AWO a few times and it seems I never find people there when I was looking. I wouldn?t feel right being a stranger to just invite myself over to someone's investment they spent hours working on. I feel my intent might be misunderstood. I am sure the folks over there are more than happy to display and talk about their airplanes, but I have done that in the past and folks are naturally busy and it seems you just get in someone?s way doing that.
Also, if I was invited by someone, I would know what I was going to look at beforehand. ect
Hope that makes sense?

Sounds reasonable, but rarely do the folks I have come in contact with mind having someone come up and start talking. You are free to stop by and see mine. I have a -12 and have just started (well, took over from my Dad) a -9 tail kit. Carl, three hangars down from me has an -8. There is a -6A in the hangar right next to me and another in the hangar behind me, though I haven't seen either of those folks for a while.
My hangar is right behind the gas pumps so there are most of the folks stopping by for gas throughout the day.
I think there is at least one RV based at S43, but I don't know the guy by name or where he might keep it.
I will probably be out flying during the day tomorrow, but should be back in the afternoon if you wanted to stop by.

look at more than RV's !
very eductional to look in EVERY open hangar, or intimately acquaint yourself with other brands as well.
Probably the best thing I ever did was get several rides and talk with builders and operators of a couple of Glastars. Heck you can do the factory tour and see the 2-weeks to financial ruin workshop as well!
Great planes, but part of the process that convinced me that I really wanted an RV. ( actually, I want one of each, but have the rest of my money tied up in a stupid house!)
