Hey Gang!
Sorry if you receive this more than once, I'm sending it to every e-mail
list I belong to and I would like to ask you to do the same.
For many years we've wanted to do something special for those who chose to
fly to OSH in an automobile powered experimental aircraft (at their own
expense) and show it off to those of us who came there to see such things
for inspiration.
The obvious thing is to give an 'award' for the 'best'. This just doesn't
cut it. For one, it creates a sense of division, which we'd like to avoid
like the plague. We experimenters are a very small group and the group
within the ranks who chose to go with alternative power is even smaller
still. We'd rather do something that brings folk together.
My good friend William Wynne (noted Corvair guru
www.FlyCorvair.com)had this
brilliant idea; we will be giving special commemorative ball caps to
everyone who arrives at AirVenture 2007 piloting an experimental aircraft
powered by an automobile (or motorcycle) engine.

So get your ball cap, wear wit with pride keeping an eye out for others with
the same cap. When you find someone, offer your hand in friendship and in
congratulations, as you know what difficulties and obstacles he (or she) had
to overcome in order to be there.
See ya there!!!

Sadly, I don't qualify to wear one of these caps, but one day....
