In Case You Missed It
Alternative Energies
Solar-powered aircraft may have some inherent limits, but they are also marvels of engineering that constantly push the boundaries of what’s possible. By Dean Sigler.
Light Stuff
The state of Oregon has a new law that mandates using ethanol in all auto fuel, potentially affecting thousands of pilots, especially owners of most of todays Light Sport Aircraft powered by the ubiquitous Rotax 912 engine. It may not be too late to take action against similar legislation that could be brewing in your state; by Dave Martin.
Since I know Bob aka Robrucha, this cartoon brings out some laughs! My wife got a kick out of it as well!

Thanks for the note. The EAA Saturday morning breakfasts are one of the things that I miss the most! That was as wonderful bunch of folks, You and Edie included. It was good to see that you had “bequeathed” the leadership to someone else so you could get some work done on your two planes.
We are not travelling much these days largely due to my condiition but we have a very nice guest room here and we can reserve it anytime you want to come out and see what God’s country really looks like. I would not advise flying in except in severe CAVU because of the capricious winds along the front range that tear light planes apart. A learjet would be suggested. Otherwise w e would love to see you. Say hi to the rest of the gang. Bob C.
