I'm in Huntersville and currently building an RV-9. (Finishing the wings and expecting the fuselage any day now. Both are slow build kits.) You are more than welcome to stop by sometime to check it out. BTW, my web site is www.repucci.com/bill/baf.html Bill -----Original Message----- From: owner-rvsoutheast-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rvsoutheast-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Lenleg@aol.com Subject: RVSouthEast-List: Re: New guy interested in the RV family --> RVSouthEast-List message posted by: Lenleg@aol.com In a message dated 10/26/04 11:13:30 AM Eastern Daylight Time, scott@keadle.com writes: Hi Len, My name is Scott Keadle. I am a dentist in Salisbuy (live in Mooresville), and I have recently become determined to buy or build an RV aircraft. I have done some preliminary research (signed up to the matronics lists, studied the vans and the rocket websites, sorted through the trade-a-plane listings, and drove up to Mt. Airy on Sunday to the fly-in). As you know, the event was cancelled. I should have been smart enough to make a phone call with the weather the way it was, but I figured a Sunday drive wasn't going to hurt me anyway. I wondered if I came to Greensboro sometime if I could take you to lunch or dinner and learn a little bit about the RV world. I'm a private pilot with about 150 hours, mainly in rental stuff, but I had about 15 hours in a Pitts S2B before my instructor crashed and destroyed it in an airshow. My phone number is 704-650-0249 mobile, 704-630-6600 work, and my email is Scott@Keadle.com. Thanks for any help you can offer, Scott Scott: We can do better than that ... how about if Larry Bowen and I flew down to Salisbury or whatever airport near there to show you the RVs. I have an RV-8A and Larry has the 8.

You put your own hangar, tie down, whatever (at your expense). I looked all over Charlotte for hangar space when I first arrived in 1999 and almost nothing was available and what was available, I could not afford. So this worked out nicely, Nice bunch of guys there as well. Approx 3 - 4 miles east of I485 along Lawyers Road on the left as you crest a hill - can't miss it {:>) Check it out.

Good luck. Yes, my first attempt to land at 28A in 1999 when I first flew my aircraft from North Virginia took me 3 passes before I got it down. But, like most things once you get used to it its no problem, twins fly out of there so an RV-7 (or any RV - even one powered with a rotary engine ) will not have any problems. The runway is 2350' hard surface - but will its admit a tad on the narrow side at 35 ft wide. There used to be ponds on both side of the runway, but one side is now being filled in and removing the largest pond. But I have landed there with cross winds gusting to 18-24 knots - not my preference for sure - but like I say its what you get used to. Ed Anderson
