The A/C is 'ugly' all right, but to me that is the beauty of it, the 'little man' getting himself something that flies. forget the beauty, forget the finesse, forget the technology, he wants to fly! That used to be what the EAA was all abnout, then it got smothered by the rush to beauty and ever higher technology I sort of think this pursuit of pure beauty and one-upsmanship is a great part of the reason that EAA has become primarily a millionaires club, the 'little man' flying his cheap homemade unsophisticated plane that he never intended to be a show-off piece has been shoved far into the background and scorned.. _______________________________________ Search the KRnet Archives at http://www.maddyhome.com/krsrch/index.jsp to UNsubscribe from KRnet, send a message to krnet-le...@mylist.net please see other KRnet info at http://www.krnet.org/info.html
