Up in the air, Junior Birdmen!

Off to Oshkosh today. I had thought about going to Berserker, but I'm now the Youth Activities Coordinator for the local EAA Chapter -- I need ideas and resources for Kid Stuff, and AirVenture is the place to get it.

I like the part where I get to design things like this card glider; hopefully there'll be more of that...

EDIT: Fixed the link.

You have an error in your pathing to the card image.. and SOME of us want it!

I'm so jealous about OSH. I so miss the days when the DI did flightline security for the Warbirds (Damn Politics). We'll want a full report.

Ok, fixed the link. Let me know if there's any changes I can make to make it easier to build. (Oh, and there's one omission in the instructions -- clip a full-size paperclip to the nose for balance.)

We'll want a full report.

Or even a series of fragmentary partial reports, posted when you have a moment, would be better than no report at all!

Wilco! I've got a pretty fair connection through my Treo, so I'll try to keep folks up to date.

In case you were wondering, the Roadable Aircraft Forum is Friday, 28 July, from 7 PM to 8:15. Speakers include Mitch LaBiche, Larry Neal on his roadable autogyro project, and Carl Dietrich of the new MIT-spinoff Transition roadable group.

If you see him, please send especially warm greetings to Ron Borovec!

(LJ apparently dumped my first attempt to write this comment, so I'll try again.)

Know this: The Roadable Aircraft Forum is Friday night, 28 July, from 7 to 8:15 PM. If you see Ron Borovec, who's running it, please convey warm regards from me and from Kelley!

Actually, I can see both comments....

I am both mildly envious of my co-conspirator, and feeling like the house is too big (which is not a feeling either of us has when he's home.)
