![]() Chrissie, Some of us missed it at OSH. We'd love to see it. Bring your stuff. Hey, how about an extra photo album of your progress so we don't fight over it like last year.

![]() Yes on the LoVac demo. I also missed it at OshKosh and would love to see it.
Also, I am a newbie, just ordered my plans on Tuesday, and already have my airline ticket and rental car for RR. How does one request a ride in a Cozy? Is there a sign up list at RR or is it by word of mouth? Reallly looking forward to it. Later. |

![]() well, last year i arranged a number of rides - not because i knows anyone, but because it is easy for me to ask for a ride for someone else. will do it again.
need to set something up though, like a signup list for those wanting a ride, easy, and a signup list for those willing to give a ride - medium easy

![]() Please someone record the demo and get it into an avi file or something!
![]() I am going to do the gear bulkheads RSN, but, to see it done would be really helpful. How much stippling do I NOT have to do? Can I just blob on a bunch of epoxy, spread it around on a layer, and continue on to the next with this method? I'm assuming I dont have to leave the pump on for the whole cure, but until the epoxy gells up pretty well. ![]() |

![]() in my book - always do a good layup, no slop allowed. I don't find the need to stipple. the lower layups are done a little wet. the last layup sucks up the excess, easy as pie. i just move the epoxy around with a squeegee on the lower ones till they are wet and clear, then add a layer, do it again, on the last one - lay it on and go do something else for a coupla minutes - when you come back - it will be mostly wet out, add a little heat or/and a little epoxy.
when i paint on epoxy i just add a little for the area and then add heat and brush pressure, i do not add till it becomes clear - then it has too much. the lower layers excess - pull it up at the end.

![]() I just got the approval to go to Rough River from Rebecca, (she who is all powerful in my home <wife>), I can't wait to meet all of you and see all the planes that will be there.
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I will only be able to attend on Sat., as I have been graciously given limited time away. I will be flying into Louisville, (Southwest), late Friday eve., then will drive down on Saturday morning. I will have to be back on the plane early Sunday AM. I would love to see the Lovac demo if it is on Sat., and to look at the girrrl's progress album. There are many things on your plane I am interested in trying to emulate. Do you know that I have never even seen a Cozy in person. Some of my freinds can't believe that I am building one without actually seeing it first. One person was real interested in my build, and asked how I thought it flew compared to other GA aircraft. You should have seen his face when I told him that I have not even seen one, let alone fly in one. He thought I was absolutely nuts at that point. I guess I just know myself well enough to know what I want. I really did a lot of homework on it first. That being said, maybe Dust can get that, "may I please have a ride" list together, so that my friends might not think I am so stupid after all. All joking aside, a ride in a cozy that Sat. would be about the neatest thing I could imagine. I would offer up my first-born, but he is a freshman in college this year, and I am sure no one would want him. As for my daughter, well, a left seat ride on the space shuttle would not be enough. She just started kindergarten this year. "Daddy's girl",... enough said. So, I will have to just hope for the best. ![]() See ya'all in 11 1/2 days! Kraig |
