Jack,
I didn't notice the "error" until I saw your email . . . but what amazes me
is "Flying's" unwillingness to admit a mistake! If you look at the picture
on page 53 of the same airplane it's clearly reversed on the cover!!! Why
would they try to make excuses??
Regards,
Bob Christensen
RV-8 Builder in SE Iowa

Well, Oshkosh is less than a week away ... guess it's time to plan some
builders' meetings, huh?
Unless someone grabs it by the horns, here's the plan ...
Usual location, The Theater in the Woods, under the shadiest tree.
THURSDAY, July 29, 9 AM
SATURDAY, July 31, 9 AM (my birthday, incidentally ... if you have an
extra IO-360 you wanna present, please advise me so I can make room in
my truck for the return trip!)
All RV-8/-8A builders welcome, including those who wannabe RV-8/-8A
builders (heck, anyone who loves RVs can come -- just bring DOUGHNUTS!!)
As usual, I'll have nametags and Sharpies. Bring your own coffee. Bob
Dimeo will bring doughnuts [yeah, right! :-)]
Any problems with those times, feel free to speak up. Otherwise, I'll
see all of you on Thursday and Saturday mornings!
