Hello there, Ive noticed over the last several months that a couple of the guys that post here are from Indiana, I would like a rough Idea of how many KR's there are in Indiana, and their locations. I would like to possibly arrange at some point to come see one if possible. I would love to come to the gathering but do not think I can make it :-( Any Info would be appreciated, Thank You For Your Time Jim Freiberger ----- Original Message ----- From: <krnet-requ...@mylist.net> To: <kr...@mylist.net> Sent: Friday, July 31, 2009 12:00 AM Subject: KRnet Digest, Vol 351, Issue 221

I have been to several Airventures over the past 35 + years. That brings me to another issue, you have a hard time finding a shirt in the VENTURE with the name Oshkosh on it. Due to the venders have to have EAA approve it to be sold on property. From what I know Oshkosh WI is a city, and EAA Airventue is an EVENT. How can EAA prevent a vender from putting Oshkosh on a Tee Shirt. From all of the threads on this site in the past few weeks/months every reference to the event going on in WI right now has been OSHKOSH........ not AIRVENTURE..... I lost my motivation for OSH/AV last year when I rode a bike to cover my plane before a rain storm, and I was out of wind before I got out of the commercial area. What letter of EAA stands for Certified aircraft.???? I was the web host for my local chapter. I let somebody else take over and I did not re-enlist my membership with EAA . It took 2 years to get AOPA to stop sending me shit. I flew 2 days to go to Oshkosh / Air ventue to have them give me a glass and have to pay to park my plane at a show that was about homebuilts. And what really sucks is people live so close to the area, only stay for a day or 2 and go home. We talk about it most of the year and then it is gone in a day or 2. I remember my dad meeting Ken back in the days and getting a set of plans from HIM. now you send in a check and hope. OSH booth.... no way. Mark L has had a forum for several years at A/V. How many sets of plans were sold there???? 0.00 I informed Bob Glidden last year that I would never go back to A/V. I will fly back to MI or even a gathing or 2 maybe. I would have a good time flying to a CX4 group deal if BOB G would be there. A gathering is meeting with people and looking at planes you are building. not just a social event. OSHKOSH is now a commercial event and the Gathering has become a social event. I think changing the location will get people sparked about building the KR and FLYING to the event rather that driving, or flying comm to a camp out at a / root beer fest. I may change my mind when I see more than Jeff Scott and Steve Glover show up to Copper State EAA . in October. Im sorry if this post is depressing or hits toooo close to home for some people, but it is the way I feel.

Being the only taildragger in the group it was the logical choice for you to climb up the tail wheel, push the rudder aside and roll onto the horizontal stab. From there it's just like getting out of bed.

After reading your rant I can't help but quote the old saying, "If you can't say something nice or constructive do the rest of us a favor and just keep quiet!". I am very new to the homebuilding community and this was my first trip to Oshkosh. I was in awe. I loved it... everything about it. I am so glad that EAA puts on an event that is all encompassing to the small aviation market. There would be so much missing if there were limits as you suggest. I can only guess that you would prefer to not have any military aircraft there also. So now that you have decided to never go back to AV, perhaps you can do the rest of us a favor and keep the reasons to yourself too.
