Robert M. Simon ES-P N301ES From: George Shattuck Sent: Thu 6/1/2006 7:30 PM To: Lancair Mailing List Subject: [LML] Sanding and dreaming That is a great picture Jim Hergert. For those sanding and dreaming I can say that I and my bride flew my Lancair 320 from Greensboro, GA (3J7) to Manassas, VA in 2.2 hrs. We babysat three grandbabies for six days then flew home in 2.3 hrs. If we had driven (Ugh) it would have been two days and ten hours each way. It took me six years to build my airplane but it was well worth it. With children and grandchildren spread from California to Colorado to Virginia, this little airplane is a wonderful machine. Additionally, I cannot afford a P-51 so this is as close as I will get. It is great looking and at fuel stops I always get admiring folks with questions. My wife has to promp me to cut it off and get manned up. I am extremely proud of my accomplishment. The point is, keep working, keep your spirits up and look forward to the flying days. It is a great way to travel. George Shattuck N320GS Kit #393, 1989
