ATTEND

There's no cost to attend but it would be helpful to get a count of the number of people I can expect. Please send me an e-mail with your name, city, a word about your RV building or flying (if applicable) and the number of people attending with you. I'll add you to the list. If you'd like to bring some snacks or salad to share, feel free. Again, it is NOT necessary to donate in order to attend.

WHO'S COMING?

Rens & Joke Verhoeven (Netherlands)
I have built an RV 9A. Flying from April 2009. (Was on the RVator cover the second issue of 2009). It is a great plane and I flew till now about 130 hours with it. The motor is an 160 Hp Lycoming O-320-E3D and the propeller is a 3-blade CS from MT. In May last year Van’s brother Jerry was with his wife Judy in the Netherlands and I was very pleased that he wanted to fly with me in My RV. (see picture) We live in Veghel in the south of the Netherlands.

Scott & Tanya Card - RV-9A flying, Oshkosh Outstanding Workmanship award in 2009. Working on an 8. Gotta have his and her airplanes. :)

Tony Phillips, Hartland, WI.
I may fly my RV-9 but that’s doubtful. It’ll be done by then but not out of Phase I. I am going to get OSH inside my “box”. We’ll see. My son Aaron will be coming as well.

Terry Ruprecht - I'm a 9A Tip-up builder near Champaign, IL ...looking forward to soon working on my RV FULL TIME !! As of Aug 1, 2010 I will be a retiree, no longer a working stiff. :o)) I presently fly 172s with the Decatur Aero Club, Decatur, IL. I'll be attending with my brother (who's doing flight training to get his PPL), another flying buddy and Cozy builder, and a 4th guy in our group ... who's a wannabee in both the builder and pilot categories. Buddy #4 gets special dispensation, however, because his younger brother, Brian, is active USAF and a previous jet jockey on the F-15 West Coast Demo Team. Brian periodically shows up at fly-ins we're attending, and let's us bask in his shadow for a day or so. ;o)

Tom Webster, Columbus, OH. - RV-7AQB N462TW (flying) Luscombe 8A (sold) CX4 (building) I should have my RV-7A in Home Built Parking and I plan on staying in Camp Scholler. I last flew my Luscombe to OSH in 2007, (Owned it for 35 years). I first flew my RV in July 2006 and have 200 hours on the airframe and about 120 on my SECOND new engine. (It's a good war story/fairy tale) I started a Thatcher CX4 about a year ago. If you really want to appreciate Vans Aircraft, build a 'plans only' homebuilt. The RV-12 didn't fit my requirements and being 73 years young, I thought I better have a LSA in the back of my hangar.

Don Pansier, Green Bay, WI. RV-7 finishing up

Terry & Linda Frazier - RV7A 92 hours and thru first condition inspection “E-Ticket” is a blast to fly Polishing is a _itch, but it sure is pretty…

Mike Cencula - I'm building an RV-7A. It's a standard build kit. I'm currently finishing up the fuselage and hope to be working on the finishing kit (canopy) by the time Oshkosh rolls around. If you're interested you can follow the progress on www.our7a.com.

Bob Mills - I'm in, along with my two sons and my Father in Law. Matt Mills Cory Mills Dick Kelleher This will be the first OSH for all of us, and I'll be racing in the Airventure Cup. RV-Super Six, N600SS Airventure Cup/SARL Race 43 We'll be in a rented trailer in Sleepy Hollow.

John Tierney - Salem, WI. I plan on attending this year. I’m still working on my 7A, like you a pay-as-you-go project. Now year 7 of what I hope will be only a 10 year project. This will be the summer of the canopy.

Kevin Horton - I'm planning to be at OSH this year with my RV-8, and assuming I make it to OSH I will attend the Piece of Grass. There is a very slight chance my wife will come along, but I suspect the odds of that are less than 5%, as she hates gatherings where she doesn't know anyone else there.

Brad Oliver - Livemore, CA, RV-7 Fuselage

Bryan Douglass - Missoula, MT. - I'm building an RV-10 and this will be my first time to Oshkosh. I'll be at the BBQ without a doubt. I have a commercial flight and rental car booked and am planning to camp if I can figure out how to check my minimal camping gear on the airline.

Melina and Don McNamara - My wife and I are planning to attend. It took me 13 years to build my RV, but will be flying in with it this year. Not sure where we'll be camping -- Scholler or with the plane -- but I'm sure we can hoof it over to POG. Thanks for putting this together!-- N8RV "Smokey"

Scott Fechtig -I'll be there with #1 son, Nate, for his first trip OSH. I missed the last couple of years, but was there handing out beer in '07. Will wear my lime green t-shirt for old times sake. I've (mostly) finished my wings and have been slowly working on the QB fuselage. I'll be challenging you for longest build time ;-).

Mike Coates - We will be attending driving up from Louisville/Crestwood KY. I am building a RV-9A currently in the finishing stage. I should have my engine mounted before OSH. In attendance will be my daughter Samantha, my brother Tony and myself.
