I wish it was mine, Paul. I merely copied it from somewhere else. I am still
trying to figure out why Santa has 31 hours on that day, travelling from east
to west. Good Lord, my brain hurts from all that thinking! ... Quick, Igor,
fetch me a new brain!

Dear Listers,
First let me apologize for the discontinuity of List service over the last
two days. There is a faulty transmit pair between here and the "B-Box" and
I have been having a heck of a time trying to get the phone company
motivated to fix it. I am now trying to get them to take one of the analog
phone circuits to temporary get the T1 line circuit up. They are
indicating that to repair the existing T1 circuit they must dig up a
cross-connect in the street which will require a Permit from the City! Who
knows how long that will take to complete.
For now, connectivity is intermittent, but working. Email should flow
fine, although web server access may be a little sporadic. I'm working as
hard as I can at getting the situation resolved, but with the holiday and
all, its just been a nightmare.
I will post more information as it becomes available... Again, my
apologies; I thought upgrading to a commercial-grade T1 would elevate my
connectivity issues once and for all...
Wish me luck!

I don't know, Chris, I just discovered this site a few days ago. But my guess
is that it is just "a good idea," yet they need some sponsorship to get the
site to run properly. I don't mind a site with advertising banners popping up
... as long as it is for products I might be interested in.
Cheers,
Michel

John,
Our Governor Taft spends like crazy. He is putting everything in to
education, and we all know how well they manage their money. His attitude
was to take the state money away from general aviation and let the pilots
fend for themselves. The best part is he is a republican!! Go figure. They
call him Governor Tax. Jeff

Chris thanks for the encouragement. I will take the camera to the airfield
over the next few days and then do an article for you. I stress that
I am the builders helper, and the guy who's building the Kitfox is
Johan Mhlberger. He's doing a great job and I've been able to
contribute my fabric working experience and do the translating of
the Kitfox manual and communication with suppliers etc. We're both
pilots and keen to get to some fly-ins once we're done. There are
several other Kitfoxes in Austria - one of which went to the North
Cape recently. We're lucky to be building at Stockerau, an airfield
just to the west of Vienna, with the luxury of a heated hangar.
Minus 9 at Stockerau this morning, Christmas morning.

Is that the same as the ones you have already sent me, Larry? I cannot check on
the Avid Yahoo site because I am not a member of that list.
Thanks and Merry Christmas,

Austria appears to have no restrictions on microlights/ultralights but there
is
a restriction on pilots. Authorities require a full private pilot license so
those
who have only an ultralight license will not be allowed to fly here. Austria
requires its local ultralight flyers to have a full private license i.e.
there is
no ultralight license here.
