My RV-9A site shut down.
Unfortunately, I have shut down my RV-9A builder's site. I sold the airplane a few years ago, but I wanted to keep the site going for a while. I've posted a few notices warning of this shutdown in the last couple of years.
Now, I have closed it down to concentrate on newer stuff and make room for my expanding email archives.
This will affect many of the historical postings on VAF, however, I still have an image of the site that I will keep for emergencies. I'm sorry that some of the tribal culture will be lost.

Vern thank you for the website. I was using it extensively during my build it was a lot of help. It's very nice of you giving the notice. Thank you Sir!

I'm not disappearing, just my web site. It was one of the first in existence for the RV-9A circa 2004. I spent well over $1000 in keeping the site running and now its time to turn off the switch.

I certainly appreciate the effort, I know many other do as well - I found the site invaluable during my build.

Vern,
Do you know whether it got archived in the Wayback Machine?
https://archive.org/web/
If you let their web crawler archive it, it would still be available as long as the user knows the original web address.

Yes, the wayback machine has archives, but VAF photo links are now dead. As an aside, I haven't updated my Harmon Rocket site since I upgraded to Windows 7, thus rendering my web authoring tool obsolete. Hence, it has been orphaned, but still exists in it's incomplete state.
I am gradually moving to just keeping an archive of 'how to' or reference material that I can link to, such as http://www.vx-aviation.com/sprocket/...ec/schematics/.
With all this new found server room, it's time to start a new project.... Hint, the wing will be on the top....

No, he's just trying to lead you astray... Maybe the "wing" will actually be a rotor for a gyrocopter...
