Kevin,
I can probably take John back to your hotel. I drive right by it on the way home. It will save you a half hour.

Today was a very busy, but enjoyable day. First we visited the Mighty Eighth Museum, which does a very nice job of explaining the history of the 8th Air Force. Then I met with Todd Swezey to see his RV-10 project. He has a very nice looking aircraft, and he seems to fully understand the risks inherent in using an unproven engine and propeller. I'm looking forward to reading about his first flight.

Then I drove down to the Eagle Neck Airpark, and met Jack Eckdahl, Wayne ?, someone with a beautiful RV-8A whose name I have already forgotten (my head is full), and Pierre Smith. Eagle Neck looks like a very nice place to live, if you like airplanes and sand flys. Thanks Jack for the tour.

We were glad you could stop by for a visit. Eagle Neck is a great place to live even with the sand gnats. Hope to see your first flight report soon. Take care and come back again anytime. Jack
