Marv and all,
I took the liberty of letting my opinion known about the following
subject. Hope no one objects to my using a sniped post from others
on the list.

I serve on the Homebuilt Aircraft Council for EAA and we are doing our best to bring the interests of the real homebuilder back to front and center. It was my idea to feature airplane that were built on a tight budget and have them on the flight line in front of everyone to see. I also pushed hard to add Homebuilt airplane camping and this year we added 80-100 new camping sites for home builders with a brand new shower facility. Most of us on the council are working hard to bring it back to the roots. We have the ear of Bob Warner and Tom P when we meet at Oshkosh.
I am just a volunteer like the rest of the people on the Council and we are committed to making it a place for us who love to build and fly our own aircraft.
Sincerely, Wally Anderson

Wally, EAA needs to wake up and remember who and what the organization was started for 50 years ago. I thank what the letters E.A.A. mean has been largely forgotten. Attached are a few opinions from some others.IMHO

OK, if any of you guys that are flying rotaries came in under $30K, here's your chance to put your thumb in EAA's eye for their treatment of
Tracy & other alternative engine planes last year.
Wish I could see it, but I'm afraid I'll be spending my money elsewhere until 'airventure' demonstrates that it is again interested in truly supporting homebuilders.

The EAA Homebuilt Council wants to showcase at AirVenture recently built experimentals that were built for $10,000, $20,000 and $30,000. If you know of anyone who has built an airplane that fits one of these categories who would like to be in the spotlight there and in a future issue of Sport Aviation, have them contact Wally Anderson at WALLYANDER@earthlink.net.
