Aero Vintage Books

I decided to add this little sub-forum to my site as comment area to the little sub-site I have on my "little" RV-8 project. Don't expect much here as the site is not well traveled, but it will document my progress through the years. I update my progress every week or so.

Here is the site:

And this is an RV-8 (not mine, but Mike Terpstra's out of Modesto Airport).

Scott , glad to see progress on your dream machine . I hope you and your family are enjoying this adventure. Yes someone does read your stuff . ( I squinted hard enough to see the P-40)

Thanks for the feedback...I appreciate it. I will put another update up on the Rv-8 site soon. I'm just finishing up Sun 'N Fun with the FAA DC-3 right now... I've been busy with other stuff the past two months so the Aero Vintage website and the RV-8 construction have suffered a bit.

wow, really amazing, your aircraft is very impressive to me, I hope you are happy with the results of your work

Fantastic update! It just keeps getting better , and better. I can't imagine trying to tackle a project like this. I have really learned alot by reading your exploits of your RV-8 . I can't say I understand it all , but I'm starting to comprehend more and more. Glad to see you found some time to travel to all the air shows , and yet still work on the RV-8.

Thanks for the feedback. I haven't checked but suspect I don't have very many visiting the pages, which is okay. The record of the build helps me keep the big picture and documents the process. So it's even better when guys like you are actually reading it.

Scott, I check your RV-8 updates too. It is fun to follow along step by step with a home built. I think it would be fun to do my own home built some day so it is nice to see how it is done. Keep up the good work.

Scott, another fine update. Looks like things are finally taking shape, and yes "It is starting to look like an airplane".

Scott, another fine update! She sure is beginning to take shape. I'm betting that's not the first (or last) piece that gets put in backwards. But don't feel bad, I'd probably have half the plane backwards. Here's hoping you and your family have a very Merry Christmas and a great New Year. Keep up the fine work .

Thanks to all for checking back and a Merry Christmas to all of you and yours also.

It's been quite a while since I checked on your RV-8 project you made some very impressive progress this year Scott! Nice job.

WOW!! Things are really taking shape Scott. I've been following your exploits for over three years now on this project, and it looks like it might not be much longer. Any estimates ? Keep up the good work.

WOW!! Scott she is really taking shape. It is really starting to look like an airplane. Keep us posted and keep up the good work. (Fire - Wall, I get it.)

See Scott, your wrong. Someone "IS" reading your updates. You can come clean now, when you were sitting in the cockpit making those noises, how many take-offs and landings did you make? Keep up the good work, and keep us posted.

No doubt about it Scott, a cutie pie for sure. The other two are "Ready for Take-off". Keep up the good work, and the updates coming.
