Heard from Mr. Jim Schnicker of North Carolina who has recently finished
a W-8 with W-10 wings and an O235. He will be joining us at Baraboo.
Jim's Tailwind was started over 30 years ago!

I will be looking forward to meeting him. The history on his aircraft
sounds similar to mine

I would like to thank Dave for arranging this years 2nd annual west coast
tailwind flyin.It was great to put faces to all the names seen on this
website.
Lots of good discussion and ideas passed around by all who attended.This was
the first time I have personally seen so many Tailwinds in one place let
alone flying.
Coupled with that some exciting fly bys by Fred and Ivan made for a very
worth while 1100 mile road trip.
Thanks Dave.
Graham Mitchell now with hangar and W10-0320 (N12558 reserved)and in final
assembly.

Hi, all. I am a newcomer to the list. I have been interested in Tailwinds for
years, but haven't done anything about it yet. I have been enjoying lurking
here for a while and hearing the talk, checking out the photos, and learning little
bits, here and there. Having never had a good look under the skin of a
Tailwind, I was unaware of the fuel tank location. I confess that this is a serious
"wet-blanket" for me, as I do not like to imagine the results in a front
impact situation. My preference would be to carry the fuel in the wings, outside
the cockpit area. I can see, by the structure of the wing, that it would
not lend itself to wet wings without a complete redesign. I have heard of both
all-metal and composite wings for the tailwind, but I do not know if anything
that exists has been made available to ordinary folks, in the form of detailed
plans. As an A&P and an experienced composite builder, I could be happy
building either type of wing, but I'm not really qualified to
design up a wing from scratch (nor interested). Can anyone in the group shed some
light on these subjects?
Thanks,
-Howard Rogers

DAVE,
Thanks for organizing Sunday's Tailwind gathering. Thanks also for taking
the time to point out those things you would or would't do the second time
around. My Murphy Rebel was pleased to be in your pictures, even if it had
to hide behind some unpainted hotrod(which, by the way, had a super looking
panel).
Bill Newkirk,
Prather, CA

Hi Howard,
Callby Wood has plans for metal wings for the Tailwind, and the plans
provide for wing tanks. It just so happens that I have both a Tailwind
Project and metal wing project at a stage at which wet wings could be built.
See the June Sport Aviation classified for more information. The workmanship
on the fuselage, which is nearly complete, is excellent. I bought the
project when I believed I had my Zodiac sold, ... but did not. I am in
Maine, if you have any interest. Harmon Lange gear included and Clement mods
were incorporated into the fuselage. Tom Wilson
