I'll be there, just found today that I am the proud new pilot an -8 that my dad just bought, sounds like a great shake down event for the new bird. Now I need to get back from Ecuador so I can go get it. Anybody know an -8 transition training place?!?!?!?!
Congrats on the 8! I wonder if your dad would consider adopting me . Be sure to get some good transition training, and we look forward to seeing you there.

Well, our town council moved a bit slower than I had hoped, but finally gave approval for our RV fly-in. I will have a complete posting in a few days with dates and details of our two-day event.
SWEET! Anxiously awaiting dates, so I can submit leave papers to ensure I won't be out-of-country for this...

My RV-9/8/7 dream may be on life support, but it ain't dead yet!
Planning is coming along nicely. We should have the dates finalized by this weekend (still shooting for the end of May). Our thoughtful planning group has come up with some awesome ideas that I am dying to share with you (but I will wait till plans are confirmed ). We are doing our best to have the event planning wrapped up by the end of next week. All fly-in details will be posted then.

A northeast RV flyin would be a great thing....I live a little further north east than the rest of you in New Brunswick in eastern Canada. There is quite an active group of RV pilots here and your flyin might be a great excuse for us to try and decipher and deal with homeland security issues and fly down....keep us informed.
That sounds excellent! Keep an eye on this thread for an event flyer. I will also add it to DR's calendar of events here on VAF (as long as I have permission to do so??....I have never used it before) as soon as we finalize the details.
