Default For what it's worth...

I'll likely be there (LoPresti) with friends from KZPH.

If you make it, look for the red and white RV-9A. Love to chat about RV's and RC models.

Default LoPresti

I have now arrived in Florida after a great flight down from Canada. Except for the nasty headwinds the weather was excellent and smooth all the way. we are currently in Ocala, planning Fort Meyers later this week and then Vero Beach next weekend.
I will do my best to be in Sebastien for the LoPresti thing.

Ivan -
You parked next to my 9A at Sebastian on Saturday.
Sorry I missed you. Turbo and I were hanging around to see if you came out to the flight line but I ran out of time to get back to the other side of the state.

Kind of a Big Brother/Little Brother shot eh? Your 10 is beautiful!

Mary and I just got back from lunch with Ivan at McCharacters restaurant at the New Smyrna Beach airport. I can report that Ivan's airplane is a stunner! Absolutely beautiful with meticulous attention to detail.

Default Sebastien visit.

Thanks guys for the nice comments, Yes isn't it amazing how similar they look. Obviously we have similar tastes in paint schemes.

I haven't been to this forum since my trip to Florida so I hadn't seen the picture, they sure do look good together.

It is my hope that my wife and I will purchase a winter home in Florida in the next 12 months. If we do then I will bring my airplane down with me for the winter months and participate in some of the many fly-ins and RV get-togethers.
