Doug,

I just wanted to thank you for something you won't even remember. I was at the airport about a year ago (52F) and you were beginning to put "Flash" back to bed after a days flight. We all know that after a day of flying we just want to put the plane in the hangar and get home to a tall glass of tea. You took the time to answer my questions and after picking up on my eagerness you volunteered to take me up for ride. What a rush!

What an impression that made! All I can say is thanks. My empennage for a future 52F based RV-8 should arrive this week.

My decision to build and RV-8 was based as much on the fellowship of the RV community as well as the awesome performance the 8 offers.

Regards,

Donald

Absolutely my pleasure, Donald.

I grabbed the logbook to refresh my memory - on 6/27/04 it says "Sunset in the clouds. Gave RV orientation flt to Donald Prater". 1.2 hrs

Congrats on starting your new RV! You're going to have more fun than you can imagine.
