Buly;  I just returned from Oshkosh, not sure if there were 50 homebuilts on the field.  Every where you looked you could see planes that qualified if you could sign 51% of your name.  The main theme of conversation on home building by folks looking at The Wittman Tailwinds, was, what has happened.  At SAA two years ago, Paul mentioned at the banquet that a young couple came to camp and didn't have the money to get on the flight line, he said they were escorted out and shown the road and most of the gathering applauded.  The only reason I stopped by, was my daughter was there with my grandson working on a Boy Scout Badge.  I could go on and tell how we were treated like %#@&, but I won't.  I don't care if I never make it to Oshkosh with my home built.  JohnD
