Angry RV Envy

So I was out at Centralia/Huron Airpark (CYCE) today gliding, and who shows up but Michel Boucher in his RV-8 to pick up his daughter, who happens to glide with us. When that airplane took off, it reaffirmed my notion that I MUST own one of these airplanes as soon as financially possible. Being a student really sucks. At least I get to fly something, thanks to the Royal Canadian Air Cadets.

Sorry...I had to share my dream.

PS: Mr. Boucher, next time you're in to pick up LeAnn, at the very least give us a wing wag on the way out.

Hey James

Hang in there, buddy. I felt the same way when I was in the RCAC glider program 26 years ago (517 Sqn). I put off building for WAAAYYYY to long, but finally did it.

Trust me, it will be worth the wait ;-)

Cheers
