Default What goodies did you bring back from OSH?

Here's my stuff:

I went over to Aircraft Spruce and bought the Dynon 100 EFIS and the 120 Engine Monitor with all the hookups. They gave me a 2 percent discount and a free calendar.



I just couldn't pass this up. There was a vendor in the fly-market that made these custom signs on the spot. So I got one. It's say's it all!

New Garmin SL 40 from my pal Stein, trying to get my panel gear a little here and there to avoid the big bite at the end. Thanks Stein! Glenn

Default ANR kit

Bought a Headsets Inc ANR kit for my DC headset. That's about it.

First time I spend so little at Airventure. Even my wife was impressed with my budgetary restraint.

I bought a 1' X 4' sheet of .050 2024-T3 from Airparts to make up my throttle/mixture subpanel so I could include my Van's Fuel Gauges under my panel.

I sold some components while there in order to get my deposit money for a new Catto two blade prop.

I got to see Smitty again as well.

About $200 worth of AN hardware to restock and prepare for RV-3 assembly - I LOVE the fly market!

Some really short RAM mount stalks.

Infinity grip for "Junior" (but ACS will ship it home - it'll be there before we are...)

A bunch of little stuff, this and that...

And oh yeah, an RV-6 painted blue and white, with VAF markings and a kick-butt new instrument panel!

Arguing on the internet is like having a competition to see who can hit a brick wall the hardest. You may win, but you're still an idiot.
