Subject: | RV-6QB for sale - reduced |
Sorry for the double posting yesterday. Not sure how that happened.
The RV-6 QB is now reduced to $26,500. Virtually everything you need to
finish the airframe is included, just add engine and instruments.
Thanks,
Vince

Subject: | Re: Eustace Bowhay |
Eustace Bowhay (note spelling) would come down to the Arlington fly-in
years ago and his RV-6 on amphib floats always drew a crowd. Friendly,
soft-spoken, obviously knowledgeable, being in his company was always a
pleasure.
I believe he died April 18, 2006. Here's a nice piece/eulogy about him
from Van's Air Force:
