Thumbs up What a peaceful place

The event was great. Because of weather there were not too many attendees but it was a success anyway. Thank you Jim and guys who helped to make it happen. I met couple old friends and got several new ones. Got my first ride in an aerobatic aircraft. In legendary Jim's 6 to be exact. Picture courtesy of Gregg Swartley.



A brief write-up with pictures will follow in 2009 thread.

Default Legend?

I always thought that you had to be very old, or very dead to be a legend .

Thanks for coming Vlad, and everyone else that braved the weather to get there. I hope everyone enjoyed the day as much as I did. It was very nice to spend some time talking with each of you.

My goal when we started this yearly get together was to meet new friends and help provide a venue for anyone interested in RV's. I am very happy to say that the original goal has been greatly exceeded. Every year I have made new friends in the RV community. It has been an absolute honor to meet each of you, and form new friendships. Thank you all for being a part.

Any word on a 4th Annual RV Gathering? It's getting close to that time of year (from what I have read in the past it's usually May"ish"). I'd love to meet some more local builders/pilots! I just wanted to know if there is a date set so I can try to get off work...

Thanks for asking. As some of you may know, I am self-employed. Thankfully, this year has been very busy for me. As a result, I just do not have the time this year to plan the event.

I have thoroughly enjoyed holding this get together, and meeting many new RV friends. We WILL have another event, but unfortunately it just isn?t going to happen this spring.

Thanks for the info Vlad! I might be in Pittsburgh for a training seminar that weekend (booo work) but if not, I'll definitely be there! I actually was thinking about joining EAA240 since the local one here in Lancaster isn't very active in actual EXPERIEMENTAL aviation/building...

Jim- I'm glad business is booming! Keep us updated if you are able to arrange something in the future. Sounds like people had a really good time in the past!
