Yea, whats up with that Cam?

The registration was for a standard airplane. Done in '75 or
something. Back in those days, some of the kits were built in the
factory and registered as standard. The FAA quit that program so
since Walt's didn't have the airworthiness registration yet, it had to
be reregistered as experimental. According to the DRE (or whatever
you call those guys) the FAA is waiting for a notarized letter and
then it should be a done deal.

I've had it "bought" since mid-December but by the time the paperwork
issue was worked through the holidays came about and you know the Feds
over Christmas. Nothing got done.

I talked to Bob the DRE guy via email a few days ago and am expecting
some good news any time now. I'm eager to get it picked up and
checked out ready for the coming soaring season.
