Hey guys, here in Orlando this weekend they're throwing the Great Orlando Rotary Air Show at Orlando Executive airport... infortunately it doesn't have anything to do with our particular passion.  It's named for the Rotary Club, the outfit that put the show together in order to help finance the eradication of polio.  It sure would be neat to have an actual rotary powered aircraft or two show up, if for no other reason that to let them know what "real" rotary aviation is all about.  I'll bet we could arrange for favored status out on the flightline.  I'll make some calls tomorrow.  Anyway, there are details at http://www.rotaryairshow.org/events.asp.

If anyone wants to come over I'd be happy to meet up with you at Deland airport (about 50 miles north) for a show & tell on the non-rotary (V8-powered) Lancair IVP I've been working on for the last few years (in order to finance my considerably smaller rotary-powered Lancair LNC2).  It's a couple days from weight and balance and we should be ready for first flight before Thanksgiving.

Come on down!
