Thanks to Barny and everyone else for all the kind remarks.  I was amazed, honored & humbled that so many came from so far to attend such a small fly-in.  Ed's DIE presentation expanded my understanding of the much misunderstood dynamic chamber and changed my plans on what kind of manifold will replace the 'temporary' one I installed 6 years ago.
 
I had hoped to give every (willing) rotary plane builder the chance to fly in my RV-4 but time, schedules and the number of builders who showed up didn't quite add up.  If any of you rotor heads who didn't get a chance to sample rotary powered flight get down this way, feel free to stop by and I'd be glad to do that.

Thanxs again Tracy and Laura, great fly in.
 
Never did like flying commercial.
 
Got up at 2 am at Tracy's to drive to Orlando ( 3 hour drive) for an early flight back.
2:05 am.  Tree down on 50th by Tracy's, able to get the top off the tree and drive around.
Made airport promptly, got on big plane with lots of kids crying and screaming.
Encountered serious turbulence halfway to Cincinnati, lots of kids crying (this time with a good reason tho).
Guy sitting next to me gets airsick and leaves a deposit in his plastic head phone bag.
All the while stuck in a seat that had less room than a C 150.
 
Working late tonite on the plane.
