Default Taildragger at Oshkosh

Did anyone get any good pics of the taildragger at Oshkosh? I saw the ones from Kitplanes flying, but I was looking for some by the booth. Thanks.

I remember a post, Paul Dye maybe, early that showed a picture of the TG 14 at the booth, I will look some more.

Added: I searched for RV14 Images on VAF and only two pictures posted. Funny, though, Tom Martin had some about making foam ribs, but there was a picture of an attractive young woman in a bikini in the search, clicked on it to see why it was on VAF and it became something else, a picture of the foam sanding jig. Odd, imbedded in tiny url somehow?

When I walked up to the -14 some guy, with wife in tow started talking, very loudly, to his wife that this was the RV-14A and that HE was going to build an RV-14, which is the model with the nose wheel and that the RV-14 was much safer than the RV-14A and that was why he was buying & building the -14. He went on to say that he was going to order the kit this fall.

My only thought was, I sure hope he figures out what the "A" means and that he orders the correct kit. (Since he shouldered me out of the way trying to get a look at the cockpit, I didn't feel it was my place to correct him.)
