Boston Area RVers
 
Hello All!

My wife and I moved back to the area last August, and I just want to see what kind of RV support we have around here.

Not building yet, but I would like to see how these machines are built! I have never even been up close to one, let alone fly in one.

Living in Rehoboth, MA....I have heard there is a lot of activity in PYM.

Thanks everyone.

Ryan,

Well, I'm probably a bit too far north for you, but I'm building a -9A in Bedford, NH. EAA 106 at LWM is a very active chapter, and holds an annual RV fly-in each June - you'll want to check that out (http://www.eaa106.org)

ASH would make a nice cross country trip up from TAN or EWB if you'd like to get a look at my project sometime.

Best,
Kevin

Thanks a lot. Good to know there is an active EAA chapter around here. If I am ever around NH I will look you up.

Hi Ryan,
Even though I have been following this forum while now,this will be my first post:D.
I have started a rv-10 about 5 weeks ago. I live in Hingham. I am still in the learning stages. I finished my work space and finished my VS. I am working on my rudder now. Another builder from southbridge mass. Steve Stella helped me a lot. I don't know what I would do without his help.
If there is anything I can do for you or if you want to drop by please let me know. Actually there is another 10 builder in Hingham who almost finished his RV.
John.

He has recently completed a panel re-design and upgrade to the panel in his RV-9 that truly rivals the ?Big Iron? in capabilities!

Hey All,

Last time we had a dinner at the Longhorn Steakhouse in Wareham it was a big hit! How about we do it again?

Let's all meet on Wednesday June 9, 2010 at at 6PM in the bar and move it to the dining room from there.

Lots of new RV stuff to talk about! I have another hangar at PYM now, Bill H. has his pink slip for his -6, Dave R. is almost ready to transport his plane to the airport, Mitch G. is done with his -12 tailcone, Jack R. is sporting a new panel in his "Battlestar Galactica" -9A, and Rich M. has his engine hung! Turbo Eddie can join us for this summer, as he is back in town now!

Hope to see you all there!

In case I don't make it back to this site soon enough and you have questions, check in here:
