Sorry not making contact at OSH with anyone.
Was hoping that perhaps some would have attended my seminars
and introduced themselves.
The only Rotary powered aircraft I found were Dave Atkins,
and Embry-Riddles / Mistral's offerings.
Spoke for a short time with Gordon and Francois, but feel they
are concentrating on certification, and the average builder
cannot afford such a package. Gordon implied around $31k
(est), for the homebuilt/experimental version.
Looks promising, but.................

Sorry I missed you Archie. There was also a Velocity out on the line early
in the week with a Power Sport 13B engine.

Archie,

Oshkosh is not a good place to see rotary aircraft. There will be some
there, but alot of the serious rotary pilots seem to save their time and go
to Tracy's in October. I live 40 miles from Oshkosh, would rather go to
Tracy's fly- in in Florida .

Had about 25 steaks worth of people at the house over EAA.  Paul Lamar, Dave
and Kathy Atkins, Herb Sanders, Monte, and bunch of us either building or
thinking about building a rotary aircraft.  You would of learned alot more
just in that one evening from people who are flying. It had an open invite
to anyone interested in rotary aircraft.

For those of you who made it to the house for Barny's Rotary Bash, was it
worth having another one next year?  Hopefully MGDQ will be making some
noise. Maybe someone will have something flying at our hangar at Wild Rose.

I had a lot of fun Barny. Thanks for inviting me. It would be good next
year as well. The steaks were fantastic. I had two :)
