REFLECTOR: V-8 at Oskosh

[Greg Poole]

I'd be very, very interested to hear of the aircraft's (XL or STD??)
performance as well as weight and balance characteristics (i.e. useful load)
if anybody can obtain that data and share it with the group please.  

The engineering looks absolutely superb!

PS: ...know how irritated pilots and passengers get when put in a holding
pattern - wonder how those space jockey's of yours (one - ours!) are
handling it?

I was parked behind Bill's V-8 at OSH. What a great job and then to 
here the story around all the major engineering and construction 
challenges including the design and construction of the PSRU Wow !! 
It should have won a big award but the judges must have missed the 
point. They sometimes get impressed by paint and gadgets. This 
airplane is a real piece of work.
I understand it will be at the Factory open house on August 19th. Is 
that correct Scott??
