Would you mind updating the totals on the post in the group buy section?

Just got off the phone talking with Kevin Russell, and he said they've got 16 confirmed with down payments, and that there are another 16 "on the fence". Well, let's make that 17 now, since I'm seriously considering the Whirlwind for my RV-8.

BTW, Kevin is very pleasant to talk to. He seems very forthcoming with information.

Hi.

You can count another one to the group as I'll send in my deposit as soon as Bob or Kevin answers my e-mail which I sent in yesterday.

Hi.

I haven't heard back from Bob or Kevin after I sent them an e-mail wanting to join the group buy.

Anyone have an e-mail adress to Kevin?

Thanks

PS: Doug: can you please tell us how many on the list by now?

[ed. On my task list to call them today. dr]

Default Delivery timeframe ?
I am waiting for the delivery of my prop, because the engine was hung this weekend. Obviously I have other stuff to do, before I have to start on the cowl, but I am getting ready for it. Does this extension mean we will have to wait longer for the shipping of the first propellers?

Regards, Tonny.

Default List
Hi Tonny,

When I talked to them, they said they were going to establish a priority list based on need.

I'm sure if you need your prop they will get it to you. If the group buy provides a better discount, I'm sure they will refund that difference to you.

These guys are good to work with.
