I'd like to introduce myself and step up and order a cold one.
My name is Jeff, and I'm addicted to RVs.
My first RV flight was with Larry Pardue in his RV-6 at the EAA LOE fly-in in Moriarty a couple of years ago... thanks Larry! My father-in-law also owns a flying RV-6A but he's on the other side of the country right now. Guess its time for me to join the ranks.
I'm "one of those guys" with the preview plans and a dream for an RV-7A. My day job is designing RF/Microwave circuitry (mostly radar hardware at the moment) for a large engineering company in New Mexico. I consider that my area of expertise, so if I butt into your thread and add my $0.02 worth don't be offended. Also, I won't be offended if you tell me to bug off since I haven't built a flying plane yet.
I'll be turning 29 at the end of the month so by many standards, I'm a youngin that has much to learn about building a plane. I'm following the Doug Reeves model of save, build, save, build so I know this will be a long process. I've had my pilot's license for two years, so now its time for my BFR!
I've also spent some time providing tech support & moderation for the main forums for phpBB (yeah, that other forum program). From what I've seen here while lurking... DR & friends have done a great job.
Feel free to move my post where it belongs.
