Once again I thank you Bob for the information. Since you have experience
with Mr. Wynne and are a skeptic of auto conversions I would really
appreciate any info on your experiences with him. If you'd like you can
e-mail me off group if you desire. Just take the NOSPAM out of the e-mail
address.

However, my personal choice is a C-85 or 0-200.


Bob,

While I'm not surprised you were the first response to my post I am
surprised that it was a very civilized reply. Thanks. I have already
spent
quite a bit of time at flycorvair.com I ordered the book last week.

It may be difficult to believe, but....
I have as many 'surprises' as I do BS. g

The point of the message was to get info from folks that aren't selling
the
plans.

I would not have mentioned William Wynn, if you had made
mentioned of him in your original post here. My past experience
with the man has been first rate. Yes, one should be cautious of
peddlers.. at least until one can size them up.

FWIW --
The only recent Corvair contact info I have lately is of a nut case
that is about to removed himself from the gene pool with a turbo
powered Corvair mated to an RV-9.

http://www.flycorvair.com/ explains quite nicely
why this is a HUGE 'no-no', but idiots will be idiots.

So far, Mr. Ding Dong has managed to bend the wings back
in a high speed taxi? accident and semi restored them to their
somewhat former beauty and looks via come-a-long and bondo.
A chunk of the prop is missing now, but not enough to deter
our unfazed friend from pressing forward with his agenda. He
destroyed his last gear driven prop reduction unit in 4 hours of
ground 'experimenting'. No telling how. Yep, this guy is something
else. I'd almost bet this flake will take his first flight without
benefit of airworthiness certificate and N number.

This particular auto conversion enthusiast/builder does hold
a PPL, but lord knows when he last flew. I'm told by his own
lips it was in a local Cherokee. The Cherokee in question was
destroyed two years ago by a couple of low time preachers in
search of God under IMC conditions using their VFR credentials.

Takes all kinds. Not all the nuts are confined to the Internet.

In conclusion --
Quality Corvair info doesn't exist on trees or bushes...
or here in RAH. You may have to search far and wide.
The best to you on your Corvair conversion journey.
