Paul,
    I will be gone for a week to visit a long lost sister in Saint

Louis,

MO - so you may want to take me off if you start to get any bounces.

Will

be the longest trip todate 600+ miles.

Best Regards

Keep going and come on out to California Ed. I sure the engine itself

won't

give you any trouble.

Love to Paul, but I don't have oxygen to get through the Colorado and
Arizona forest fires {:>).  The engine has never given me any problem

that I

was not ultimately the culprit, so no concern on that part.  As me to tell
you about my 12 mile glide in my RV to a deadstick landing at

Winchester, TN

sometime, best over a beer - no problem with the engine, just the operator.

Yeah boy, you guys that have gotten your RVator newsletter have had a
chance to read that story.  It took a couple of hours to loose the
adrenalin rush I got from reading it.  I've had a few opportunities to land
without the convenience of the engine I started with...but...12
miles!  ..and a cloud deck...whew!

Get Ed to post that to the NL when he gets back for you guys and gals that
don't get Van's builders newsletter.
