Sure wish I could make it. I have a good friend that lives there, Mr. John Carson. I would be very pleased to meet him face to face after talking with him so many times over the years. Unfortunately, as S n F is the following week my grand kids can only get out of school a few days to attend and camp out with us so I'll have to decline. Maybe I'll have my RV-8a finished by next year and we can fly to attend. Thanks again, Bill Phillips In a message dated 3/17/2009 9:54:55 P.M.
