Just got my digital edition of Sport Aviation. If you look close, Darwin is featured in an ad for Ford, with his RV-7 in the photo also. Check it out, pretty cool when us RV guys (or wanna-be's like me) get some coverage! Glenn

Would have been even better if it was a Chevy ad

Congrats Darwin.

Just got my hard-copy today. Fabulous photo. So sorry about the dog, though.

Thanks for the kind words. We had a lot of fun doing the photos. It was taken by Kurt Gearhart, a neighbor of mine at Stellar. Just before we were done my little dog was bugging me to hold her because she was ignored for an hour or so. Kurt told me to grab the dog and stand up through the sun roof. We did it for fun to get the dog in the picture. So, we were surprised when they used that one.

Sadly, my dog died March 15th. Those who are pet owners know the void this can leave. It makes the ad even more special.

Keep in mind the Ford/EAA partnership program if you need a new vehicle.
