Hello;
I'll be in Oregon (for RV transition training) from August 15th until 27th.
My goal will be fly learn , fly learn, fly learn... as much possible to became "ready" .
After Mike lessons (in first) , I would be happy to meet some builder/flyer community around there and, why not, have a fly experience and spending nice time .... maybe punching rivets also, if someone needs :)

Oregon

Oregon welcomes you! Give us a ring if you want to see some sites or get a cup of good coffee. I know the best espresso machiado in town!
 
Hello from Eugene

I will PM you my telephone and email address.

I am at KEUG in Eugene with an RV7 and there are many RV's here on the field. We would be delighted to give you a ride and tours. Synergy Air where the RV12's are assembled is here, and you can see John Stahr's beuatifully painted American Angel RV8.

Also if you need a place to stay, we have room.
 
Leaving in the morning for two days with Mike in the RV-14A (Wed. and Thursday). Hopefully the rain will stop out there for at least two days.

I'm also at 7S3 (Twin Oaks, south of Hillsboro) and building a -8A on the field in Hangar G-2. We also have two Teen Flight RV-12s there and a few more on the field, plus some 6's, 4's, 9's 7's and probably others I can't think of.

And of course if you have not done the Vans factory tour before, well that's just mandatory. :)

little update

PDX waiting boarding to back home :(

Just to say at all guys that I met in those two weeks, thanks a lot for your warm and availability, the time spent with you , whether it is in fly or face a steak dinner, was priceless.
The training went well , interesting and absolutely mandatory for me that I flew just planes like C172.
as soon as possible I'll post some pic and hope, news for the first fly. :eek:

Thank you again Beautiful Oregon :):)
 
It was great to meet you Lucio, and glad your Oregon experience was a great one! Best of luck on your test flying. Looking forward to seeing all the details and pictures here!
