I love your writing. When you gonna write another book?
Thanks! Writing has been taking second fiddle lately, since I've been so
busy at work (it's tough to come home and face the computer after spending
all day on it). However, both KITPLANE CONSTRUCTION and AIRPLANE OWNERSHIP
are due for new editions, so I'll probably be working on those. Been
holding off to when all the Light Sport Aircraft stuff is official.
I've been posting my Fly Baby stuff to the Fly Baby mailing list instead of
RAH, but some of it gets archived on my web page. Go to:
http://www.wanttaja.com/flybaby
...and click the "Stories" link. A couple of RAH denizens feature in one
such piece, at:

Feature???
I'm not sure "feature" would be the appropriate word but...
My last mistake of the day happened a few minutes later. John Ousterhout and John Ammeter came around, and complimented me on the display. I was feeling a bit better about our effort, by then. "Maybe they had to use a wide-angle lens to shoot our picture," I said proudly, "But our formation…."
I didn't get any farther. On the phrase "our formation," both Oyster and Ampmeter starting howling with laughter.
Some friends *I* got. :-)

I do have to say that our response to Ron's use of the word
"formation" was completely unrehearsed and totally
spontaneous and, I might add, we both burst out in laughter
at the same instant....
Formation?? Much more like "same day, same destination"...
