Default Looking for RVators in N.E.

Hey y'all, looking to see if there are any builders/RVators here on the forums from the New England area (Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Vermont). Looking to eventually build one, and would love to take a flight to try it out before I commit! Any connections would be great!

Pick him up and bring him to KPYM.

We got plenty of kool aid to serve up!

Default RV's in New England

I'm a three time builder based af KBAF currently with an full IFR RV-7A. I live in East Windsor CT.. Where are you located? I''ll take you for a ride if you want one. If you're a pilot, you sit in the left seat (if you want too, but I'll keep you honest!).

Hahaha I've been living in the south the last 2 years Mike, it's catchy! Originally from RI, lived in the Boston area for 5 years, then been living in Oklahoma and Arkansas the last 2 years. I'll be moving back in about 2 months!

Captain John, you're right in Plymouth? Flown into KPYM a bunch of times for training (out of Quonset, RI and Norwood, MA). I'd love to come check out your operation, and drink some of the RV coolaid...

Fred Stucklen, expect a PM from me in the relatively near future! I would love to take you up on that offer and pick your brain for information on building and IFR certification. I'll be in RI, I live about 20 minutes from Quonset (KOQU). I'd love some left seat time (yes I'm a pilot haha)! I've flown into BAF a few times, the tower controller didn't like me too much for whatever reason. Was just doing a full stop taxi-back and he made me taxi to the ramp, then call him up on ground to taxi back to the runway... Was really unnecessary haha. I have a buddy that lives in the agawam/Springfield area!

Scremm, can't forget about Maine... Just a little far of a drive for me from southern RI haha. Love skiing up there though, and I bet the flying is great in the summer time!

Do you fly a diamond?

Perhaps we have met?

Shoot me a PM and we can arrange a time to meet.

RV-4 at Nashua, NH (KASH). Prepping for paint now, but you can still hop in to try it on for size. We also have a great diner (Midfield Cafe)... breakfast or lunch is on me.
