Saw many old friends and met many new ones. A successful event. Not as many Piets as expected. I counted 15 total. Someone else correct me if my number is in error. Thanks to Kevin and Don for constantly giving rides. Ed Fisher did a presentation about resurrecting the Sport Aviation Association. Many joined or rejoined and others will send checks when they get home as I will. Ed's address is as follows Sport Aviation Assoc c/o Ed Fisher 361 Whiteplains Place Gilbert, S. C. 29054 I was a member all the time Paul published the old SAA magazine. I think it's a great idea to have a "grass roots" type magazine for all of us that don't want to read about someone's $150,00 turbine powered plane or the "hollywood type" rich people.

I'm also interested in a grass roots aviation organization. What's the deal? Do I need to write to Mr. Fisher or just send him some money? If money, how much? Just wondered if you flew your Piet to Brodhead. I'm not far enough along on mine. Maybe next year. The engine is about ready to run but don't have access to a test stand for it. Will probably wait until CC at Barnwell in November to run it the first time. Looking forward to it. If you would like to contact me off line, my address is cncampbell@windstream.net Thanks for the information. Chuck Campbell PS I don't think $150,000 would touch a turbine-powered Lancair, for instance.
