I met Ron up in Denton (IIRC) a few years back when I was visiting a fellow Velo builder Alex Balic, who is using a Soob.

Ron gave me a ride in his Lyc EZ. It was great.  I was there the day he received his Marcotte (sp?) PSRU.  He thought it was a beauty, however, I think that he has since put the PSRU up for sale, not sure if it sold, not sure where I saw the for sale posting.  I THINK he has moved away from the rotary.  I don't think he lost faith, just interest in it being part of his aviation hobby.  Not really sure though

Ron was very gracious and I have heard he will fly out to your location.  He is in the back of my mind since he is not only rotary knowledgeable, but also canard and composite.  However, there is a DAR on  my field who has seemed like a helpful guy so far.   GEE, I am just hoping to get to a point where I need a DAR.

All the best,

Chris
