Default Doug Reeves

Hello Builders...

Can we chip in a buy Doug an RV3 Tail kit to get him going? And no he doesn't need the money!!! $50.00 a head, I'm in... $910.00 we should be able to make this happen.... He has done an awesome job with the RV community, maybe we can pay back with some QB wings too... Then we schedule a build weekend in his garage to give him a jump start on the
RV3B... Sounds like fun!!

Thumbs up I'll jump in on this

Doug has done a lot for the community. VAF has so much valuable information, I couldn't tell you how many threads I've saved in my "builders notes" folder.

Let me know where to send a money order.

- just received my Dynon servos and AP74, hope to fly before summer '09

Thanks DOUG!

Thanks Dave!!! You're on Spot... We will set a deal up with Van's for the funds.

Face it... Turn this site off for a week and we would all need to go to see a shrink...

And let me clarify!!!!! We are not looking for a charity donation!!!!! Doug at this time knows nothing about this. This is a GIFT to him. The Reeves Family does well for themselves.
Best,

-d-

Setting this up with Vans would be great, especially if this can be done via credit card. Or someone might have a Paypal account we could deposit to. Makes it a lot easier for us Canuckleheads seeing nobody south of 49 likes our cheques (checks to you guys). But I will go buy a US dollar money order if need be.

I really appreciate the tone of this forum and the work the moderators do. Sometimes there are a few complaints about things being too strict but it beats the alternative.

Mark,

Van's will be contacted, Doug has the RV3B preview plans. We get a builder # and the credit card should be able to be applied. This is a great forum! And Doug put this all together. A lot of hard work was and still is involved. I just this we should Gift back to him.

I'm in. If I wasn't for Doug and this site my project would still be gathering dust in the basement.

Default It is worth the entertainment value

I'm in. It's not that I particularly like the little booger, but it might be worth the entertainment value to see Doug wrestle with holeless aluminum until it flies.
