Hi All,

I'm about 20 hrs into my RV-7 tail kit. Looking to see who else might be nearby who is also building an RV in the Buffalo area. Would love to check out your progress.

Cheers,
John Canty

Not building - but in Rochester.

Dan,
Never noticed you were in Rochester.
I get up to Ledgedale once or twice a year.

If I can remember to do so, I'll send a note next time and maybe we could meet for an adult beverage over at Genesee or something.

Still a little early, but keep an eye on http://www.upstatelist.org/ - most anything will be listed there.

Thanks Chris! I'm familiar with your area (I'm a muni bond broker and actually just sold some Greene, NY bonds!). Used to be named Hornsby, NY. Are you located at 4N7?

Also - did you go QB or slow build? I'm at a crossroads on which way to go.

John

Hi John,
