Default RV-8 Builder - New to the Louisville area

Howdy! I'm just about to move from California to Louisville, KY. Are there any other RV-builders (or dreamers) in the area? I plan on joining the local EAA chapter, but I figure I might as well post here first since you all are my kind of people.

There are a number of RV builders in the New Albany, IN area, right across the river. Greg Gruniger (sp?) is a Golden Lindy winner and has built many airplanes. I believe they all belong to the local EAA chapter down there.

There are many RV builders/Flyers at Bowman field. I have an 8 that was finished about 3 years ago. We have a pretty active EAA chapter with a few builds in progress. If you need any help with anything, or just want to meet some of us, pls dont hesitate to contact me
