Bob and Rick:

You guys need some help! Let's hope your aero medical examiner doesn't read this.

205. You hold off going to the bathroom until it is "critical" because you have ONLY 20 more holes to drill, deburr, dimple, and rivet.

206. You spend all your time on the plane... you know this how... a bird has established a nest in your bike shoes on the other side of the garage!

207. People mistake your house for an aluminum scrap yard due to that big pile of scrap airplane parts in your back yard.

208. When you get off of an airline and walk by the pilot, you dig out a copy of Kit Airplanes with an RV on the cover and say "Wouldn't you rather be flying this?!"

209. You can rattle off the alleged issues with an O-320-H2AD.

210. You keep a copy of the preview plans next to your easy chair in front of the TV.

211. You think of prop spinners when being intimate with the wife.

212. You start practicing the RV Grin before you pop that first rivet.

213. When you write your weekly capsule reports at work, you include an update on your airplane.

214. Your right arm (left arm in you are a lefty) is bigger than your left from all the riveting and squeezing you have done.

215. Your wife Googles you and finds three hundred posts you have made on various RV message boards.

216. When your parents ask for your recommendation to where to move to in their retirement, you recommend a place near a nice airport about 500 miles away, as that will make a nice trip in your airplane.

217. You actually know the difference between an AN426AD3-4 and an AN470AD3-4.

218. You are a veteran of the Primer Wars.
