OK Rusty, I'm old and easy to confuse. One week you are selling your RV  because you're not a cross country person. Next week you're talking about doing Alaska in an aircamp??? Now that's a cross country!

I say these things just to confuse you Bernie :-) 
 
First, I'm pretty glad that no one jumped on my engine or RV-3 offer, because I've talked myself out of selling it for now.  Rest assured that it will eventually get sold, but I tend to work up to selling things like this in stages.  The first stage is deciding that if someone jumps on the offer, I'll sell it, but then if they don't, I keep it.  That's where we're at now.  Each time I get the urge to sell it, the attempt will get more serious, until eventually, I'll just want it gone, and will practically trade it for a cheeseburger and a couple beers.  We're nowhere close to that yet (Todd) :-)
 
Second, I never said I wanted to fly cross country in the AirCam.  I would like to have an AirCam, and I happened to find some nice pics of someone who did want to fly it cross country. 

I flew my RV6A to Alaska in 01, super trip but that was over 50 hours in at 190 mph.
 
You're a better man than I :-)

Bernie, modifying cowling for more exit airflow area.
 
Bet you won't have as much as I do :-)
 
Cheers,
Rusty (all single rotor parts cleaned, and ready for assembly)
