Paul Lamar and I have been having a discussion offline.He
feels that he is
doing more good for the rotary aviation community by
continuing
with this
discussion board and website than by actually finishing his
plane.I agree
completely.

I also feel that for himself, he should quit with the
newsletter
for a while
and concentrate on his plane.There is nothing quite like
the personal
satisfaction you get from flying the plane you built
yourself.The archives
alone should keep any new-be busy long enough for Paul to
finish
is plane
and join a very select few.

  So what say you all?Can we do without Paul long enough
for him to finish
his plane? If so, lend some encouragement.

Hi David,

I agree.Paul could use some time off from this almost 24/7
newsletter,
for 11 years.Refresh himself with new ideas and create his
own plane.
With HIS own rotary powered A/C he would lead by exemple.A
very good
point.

Paul ... I won't live long enough to finish the
projects my dad left
uncompleted, much less my own. But once you get your
aircraft flying
(and before then, as well), I'm still looking for the
Holy Grail 400+
continuous HP, low SFC, certificated (gulp) rotary.

Thanks for all you do for the community!

I don't think you will live that long to see one based
on
the rate of acceptance over the last 11 years. Now a turbo
compound
rotary could change all that over night. Well at least as
long as
it takes the FAA to certify it.

I'll give Paul a nod to devote himself to his airplane. I gotta do the same.
