Okay, sounds like there's a story behind that loaded question. Let's hear it.

Well....
I didn't get the date( But my friend did!!!)... and it was not an RV.... It was a helicopter and I was trying to hook Ty up with his new "friend" but she did not want to listen to me... she just wanted to do wing-overs and other fairly interesting manuevers that included pitch and roll just shy of the legal limit.... Ty was building the tail when they met. Now Ty and his new bride are married! She is a private fixed wing and he is finishing his private. She is now hinting at a wing kit.... (WHAT A CATCH!). I had already met my GF several years ago and I was already a pilot... and she loves flying in the Yankee as well as the helicopter, especially on the 4th of July! The Yankee was not quite as fast as the rv but she didn't care... she loved it and she cannot wait for me to get an RV.
Best
Brian

I really hope no one deletes this thread. This could make for good motivation for a lot of builders!

How about a second date in a crappy old rented Cheetah? No? Oh well, we're creeping up on 20 years together; she still puts up with me and the rental Cheetah has been upgraded to an RV-8, which she quite likes.

Date, Engagement, Wedding
My Cessna 140 got me a date (with future wife) since my RV was still under construction. After her first ride in the RV (two years later) I was engaged to get married (actually proposed at OSH, magic happens when in the presents of 5000 airplanes).
You should never under estimate the power and effect an airplane has. They can get you places you were not intending to go.
