Default New RV flyer!!!

Ladies and gentlemen,

I am ecstatic to say that I just bought home the new to me RV6. I'm still going to build an airplane but now I can build my tailwheel time and RV experience in the meantime. My hat still goes off to the guys that build their first RV.

I've already gained a lot of knowledge off this board and expect to get a LOT more.

I'm also very interested in connecting with some RV folks in the Southern California area. I know there are a lot in the Chino area and there are several at my home airport in Camarillo.



Craig

PS A BIG thanks to Jason Johnson and Jason Somes who helped me pick the right airplane and bring it home safely.

First congrats on the purchase of an RV!
Second...If you don't know about them yet you should look into this group for more SoCal contacts...http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SoCAL-RVlist/

Enjoy your new toy!

Craig,
I saw 321GT on Barnstormers...you've got a beauty for sure! Congrats!
Send a PM to Rosie (Paul Rosales) here on the forums. He can put you in touch with all of SoCal RV. They are a great bunch of people.

Regards,

Congrats Craig! I'm considering going down the same path of getting a flying RV to help inspire the build. Now, let's see some progress on that empennage, or I'll come down and buy it back from you.

Default Maybe!!!

I might decide to leapfrog to a 10. I'll only ask for a small storage fee if you want it back. :-)
