Enough already! We know how you feel. Many others have a different opinion and your diatribe won't change that. -- Best regards, Steve ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 08:04:16 AM PST US From: Dj Merrill Subject: Re: Glasair-List: G-III for sale or ??? --> Glasair-List message posted by: Dj Merrill st.ellison@comcast.net wrote: > I still might change my mind and have it finished but I'm losing my enthusiasm, maybe I just need a little G-III flight time to get back in the swing!!!

I consider it one of the great advantages of having an experimental aircraft... *grin* -Dj ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 08:20:43 AM PST US From: N16cd@aol.com Subject: Re: Glasair-List: G-III for sale or ??? --> Glasair-List message posted by: N16cd@aol.com A lot of people have burn out at the stage you are at. You have to get a second wind and push on. Don't think about the end, just do the tasks at hand. Believe it or not, around six months after your project is completed your life will appear empty and you may start to have "withdrawal" symptoms and may think about another project! Also, consider the financial losses, a completed plane has far more value than a project. Building a plane is a love pain relationship. After it is completed all of the pain will be forgotten. Think of this: Early one morning I flew my Glasair over a 14,000 foot Glacier clad mountain while traveling through the Rocky Mountains. One spring, while cruising off the Georgia coast line, I once picked up a low level Jet Stream and had a ground speed of 350 mph. Control reported me as ; "A BD Jet!" Last spring, while traveling through north Florida, I flew through a cloud saddle that was flanked by two 40,000 foot high thunderstorms. The saddle I flew over was 17,000 feet high. Last July 4th I flew through Washington, Baltimore, New Jersey and Manhattan airspace at 13,500 feet while telling admiring airline captains, that where below me, about my plane. ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 08:40:50 AM PST US From: N16cd@aol.com Subject: Re: Glasair-List: Re: --> Glasair-List message posted by: N16cd@aol.com Delete..next ________________________________ Message 7 _____________________________________ Time: 10:39:46 AM PST US From: st.ellison@comcast.net Subject: Re: Glasair-List: G-III for sale or ??? --> Glasair-List message posted by: st.ellison@comcast.net I just moved from Illinois to Salem, Oregon and don't know who around here would have a completed G-III.
