Default Conratulations VAF members!

The August edition of Sport Aviation has an article about the donation of Ken Simmons RV-3 tail kit to Brad Brensing. It mentions many that helped. Great Article and a great deed! I am sure somebody will be able to add the the thread that started this in here!

Default Cant find it

I searched all over for this thread, and as far as I can determine, someone deleted it quite effectively.

Maybe Doug can work some magic.

The original was a classified listing (auto deleted after around 60 days).

The story is on page 92. Awesome.

This is my bad, btw. I should have moved that thread over to to one of the other areas. Sorry.

BTW, I met Brad and his dad at OSH. VERY nice folks. I think Brad said thanks about 8 times <g>.

I just got the mag in the mail, and after reading the article, I (almost) wasnt sure if it was the same story.

Imagine all the help this kid got from EAA, and its members. Sure is amazing what EAA can accomplish. WOW!!

Oh, yeah, there was some mention something about a bunch called VAF, but sounds like they didnt do a lot.
