Thanks Wayne,
OK I just read his (wifes) last blog post, he passed away Aug 13, 2010 from
cancer. The blog is terrific, and he was too from everything what I can see.
There is a lot of good VW info. I can save it by "printing" each page to PDF in
Chrome, but with hundreds of pages, is there an e

We used meeting rooms for forums at Mt.Vernon, 4 or more over two
days. Attendees want to gather as much info and get as much KR
exposure as possible at the Gathering. T
Great post. I would like to ask specifically the differences in what you
consider "good" VW conversions vs less good. I truly have no idea and someday
will need to know. Also, i have looked at a number of "temporary rides" to fly
while buildinga KR and are usually VW power. I wonder what to loo
I will be camping there all week. I can provide ground transport with my

You need to know that this has been going on for a very long time.
Sometimes it is just as you described, but the KR group has evolved and they
expect a lot more. The aircraft really need to be hangared at night. No
one wants to lose their plane due to a freak storm. The expense for a pilot

I'd be keen to understand what killed Jeremy Monnett before I'd go there

It's doubtful it was the engine that killed Monnett. It's hard to
imagine how a power loss, even a catastrophic one, on takeoff could
cause what happened to them. Having said that, I would opine that

Interesting insight, I had thought that this was a much less formal thing. In
another post, 10-20 KR expected, so it seemed like it would be sufficient to
agree on an airport with sufficient parking, a date, and share accommodations,
ride sharing, contact, and other convenience info. Then it wo

You have to have attended a Gathering to appreciate the amount of
planning and coordination that has to take place to make a Gathering
work. Simply "finding your way" somewhere doesn't work wel

Anyone considering hosting a KR Gathering needs to consider the
following items. Some are requirements and some just make for a better event.
- The desire to act as host for up to 150 people from all points of
the country and possible international visitors.
- Ability to plan and organize m

Now that's funny. One way in, one way out runway. No flybys. Land on 27,
depart on 9. DA that time of year is usually around 10,000' or higher.
Restricted area 200' south of the runway. No hangar space available. And
