Just saw a note on fb that Kevin won the award for Best Build at Mohave! Congrats Kevin!!

Two other SARL racers also won prestigious awards: Jeff Lange won for Best Design with his modified Sonerai I (boo-yah to my Reno Crew Chief!!), and Mike Patey won the Experimenter of the Year Award with his modified Lancair Super Legacy (TSIO-780 powered beast...harumpf!). Very proud of all these great experimenters!

Saw that Dave Anders was there with his super-fast RV-4, and I heard there were many raves over Paul and Louise's TSAM!!

Sounds like it was a really fun weekend!!

Congrats and Cheers!
Bob

Weather permitting I'm going to try and head up for the 2015 fly-in on Saturday 4/18. Looks like a cool excuse to fly and see airplanes.

Any one else planning on being there? I see Paul Dye is again speaking at the banquet.

Ahhhh....better check again - although we might well be there, I can't stay for the banquet to hear speaker Mike Mellville! (I have to be headed to SnF - schedule overlap this year).

I can't believe it is another year. Anybody planning it? Looks like great weather for the entire weekend.

2 Vans' engineers scheduled to speak Sat at 11am.

One of the few trips where it would actually be quicker to drive than to fly the Rocket, I'll still fly in the 3.5 miles.

...much cooler that way!
