I'm behind that one- might even get to fly my V in if it is in the
summer (fingers crossed tightly)

    Thank you Scott!  I didn't think anybody was ever going to wake up
to the potential of the Texas Fly-In :-)  We've got Texas size airport
facilities, San Antonio is known for their expertise in convention
hospitality, we've got Sea World, Fiesta Texas, The River Walk, the
Mission Trail for history and photography buffs (the missions are one of
the most coveted locations for professional photographers worldwide),
the list of attractions is very long.  --  And of course there's the
food!  Few cities in the country can begin to match our food chain.  And
if you get homesick for the coast it's less than a two hour drive to
Corpus Christi and Padre Island.
    Also...  Our flying weather is perhaps the best in the United
States. --  Low rainfall, warm temperatures, gentle winds; there's a
reason the Air Force had so many bases here.  And we are virtually
unaffected by tropical storms (I'm reluctant to use the "hurricane" word
after this last season, but we didn't get a drop, or even any harsh
winds.)  With all the great facilities San Antonio has to offer, I've
often wondered why Velocity hasn't picked up and moved their factory
here by now.  ...................  Think it over :-)

Additional thoughts ...
No need to make this a "come by airliner" affair entirely.  Why not
coincide the Velocity program with an EAA regional fly-in (SWRegional in
San Antonio, TX is one idea) or AOPA Expo 2006 Palm Springs type of
event?

Velocity, Inc. will gladly pitch-in with some financial support.
Sounds like fun.
Pick a location that non-aviation loving spouses will enjoy.

Yes, 'tis fun.  This leads to a sense of community.and a VERY crazy
idea.now that we see where most everybody lives.

It's been done before for various events, but.

Anyone interested in an official Reflector "Drive-in" for builders,
perhaps in a year?  We could all meet centrally in the U.S (fly in
commercially) for a weekend of fun and sharing, Friday noon through
Sunday at 3:00. Perhaps some could bring photos and make formal
presentations, with discussions of mods, things learned, etc.  Something
like a scientific convention, a sharing of latest findings.  Scott
Baker, you'd be invited to join us as the factory tech rep.

No, I'm not the guy to put it together. Someone else would be better
talented.  Can't be that hard.Ramada in KS, meeting room, a few meals,
AV equipment.What say you all?  Any interest?

This is pretty cool - every time I look at the Frapper map I see a few
more Velocitites!

Dear Collective,

I just created a "Frapper" map for Velocity owners and builders.  If'n
you don't know what Frapper is yet, it is a map that will allow users to
add themselves and give a visual representation of that persons general
world location.  You may also place a picture and brief description of
yourself and/or project.  I am already on two other Frapper maps and
have suffered no known ill consequences.  (yeah, you do need to register
so I imagine you are once again being tracked for marketing purposes by
someone....so it goes).

I find the other two very interesting to monitor.  I am currently on the
Frapper Rotary engine list and the CanardAviator list.

To add yourself please to go to http://www.frappr.com/velocity.  It is
free and very easy.  I hope to see y'all there.

All the best,

Chris
