Hi, Ed. I get it; we'll all have to face that decision at some point, if we're fortunate enough to live that long. Do know that you're missed at all our rotary gatherings. Please stay on the list, and keep contributing.

Thanks for the kind words, Todd

While it was a difficult decision to give up my rotary baby due to all of the great times and exchanges with all of you folks, my self evaulation indicated that it was the right time to do it.  While foruntately in great health, I had notice that I was becoming more easily distracted - that wasn't so bad, but I found more often that I was not getting back to the point before the distraction.  I concluded that added to the risk factor and throw in 8 decades of living and it was time to make the decision.  A couple of sucessful engine-out experiences fortunately ending in successful, no-damage landings and my youngest sisters warning that my "guardian Angle" was not getting any younger either  -  and the decision was made. 

I intended to sell the airframe minus the rotary installation, but David cited his rotary racing experience with the engine and desire to fly it with rotary convinced me to leave it in.

I still monitor the list and although I no longer make much of a contribution, it just feels good to hear you guys carry on.

Best Regards

Ed

Subject: [FlyRotary] Re: New Member

When I first joined this list back in 2000, the list name was actually "PlugsUp" as it was my understanding that it was formed due to the moderator of the "other list" refusing to allow any discussion of such heresy. The list quickly became populated with builders such as myself that while not pursuing a plugs-up installation for my own project, we did value the open and thoughtful discussion that was contributed by those that were either banned or voluntarily left the other list. Soon the list changed name to the current "FlyRotary" name to better reflect the membership, but while the focus was no longer on plugs-up installations, the contributions by Ed and his experiences were many of the most valuable during my build.
  His regular contributions are sorely missed, and while it is sad that his flying days are over, I am very pleased to hear that his aircraft will soon be back in the sky and that you've joined the list as well.

For all the R&D that was done i am very grateful.
My installation is a footprint of his setup but only a p port.
Thanks let us now when the "bluebird RV6 " is in the hangar.
