Hi All,

Just wanted to give a brief update on the time to climb revival.  I have been in contact with the planes owner, and he is determined that if the EAA accepts the aircraft as a donation, that is where it will go.  However, most of us feel that it is very unlikely that the EAA will accept it at this point.  If that occurs, the owner may be amenimal to some sort of process that allows sponsorship and additional attempts in order to increase the likelyhood that the EAA will find interest in displaying the aircraft (perhaps if it only had a fancy new paint job, sponsor, and beat Rare Bear's retired record)

If we come to some sort of agreement, we will be accepting donations and selling shares in the venture, with an advisory board of stakeholders.  Then we would start seeking sponsorship.

So standing by for the EAA's decision, but expecting more chances at the record sometime in the next year.

I'll donate my hangar and time to get it developed with a new prop. Catto will build the prop
for $5000 and 3 months. If you fly it.

We need to do a Maximite compression test. If it passes the test it's good
to go. If you fly it ....It's reliable enough to fly it out of Santa Paula IMHO.
