Looking for a ride at Rough River

[willybears]

Hi my fellow canardians,

 

I am a soon to be an Aerocanard builder. I have the plans and have built my table, and scales are ready to go. I also have hangar space to begin the build. I have hung around in the background for a while and made several trips to Rough River and Oshkosh. What I would like to know is if anyone can give a demo ride to me or more importantly my wife in a Cozy or Aerocanard at Rough River? I would be willing to buy some gas, lunch, dinner or what ever to give my bride the experience. She has been through the Pinch Hitter program and loves flying. For her, the flight is to set the hook. For me, the flight would be to see the flying qualities.

 

If there is any interest, let me know

Could you post a picture of your wife?

 

Seriously - I don't have the requested type, but would be happy to give a ride in my Long.

Dave had a lot of time on his hands

[longezdave]

Ya can't blame an old perv for trying to get a pic, even if the post is a little stale can ya? Sometimes I'm a little slow.....

[steve]

lol, i just saw the 06, but if you are going to be there i'd love a ride:D

[Neverquit]

I'll trade some hot dogs or a coffee can of cash for a ride.

[longezdave]

steve and Neverquit - I'd be happy to give rides, but maybe you'd be better off finding someone a little more attentive to detail than I have proven to be in this thread.

Steve has obviously used up his builder ride quota, and although he's an active builder (earning more ride-worthy points), I am cutting in front of that line, just ahead of steve...

[Neverquit]

Jon, you need to convince fliers that you're actually going to "build" your Cozy before getting ride time.

...... that's the best quote of the thread.

 

............ I'm still laughing .........

Ha, true, but I'm going to work the newbie angle -- I need motivation to get moving.

 

I don't really need motivation, just better time planning (ok, maybe no more TV). My annual camping trip is this weekend. Thinking of canceling that in favor of getting the shop back in order. Something about facility-less hurricane-soaked tent camping that isn't sitting well with me right now...

ON A SERIOUS NOTE....Anyone from the Philly area or next states over going to RR with there plane...I am looking for a ride to and from RR. Will pay for the Gas. And maybe share a room if you dont snore!!! OR...does anyone know of anyone that is going from my area let me know and I will contact them.

 

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!!!!
