Thank you for the invite and the video.  It was a great pleasure to meet you all
and it definitely inspired me on my refurbishing attempts.  Since that weekend,
I have done more work on my Europa in the last week then in the last year.
Although, I have discovered more major new issues (major to me) that I did not
plan for, I still feel confident that my Europa will be back in the air by Oct
of next year.

Regardless of my progress, I welcome and will attend any local events that may
come up so I can keep my motivation going.  And once my Europa is done, my plan
is to attend more events that are not so local.

Once again, thank you for all of your hospitality and great technical input.  
Hope
to talk to and see you all soon again.

Rob

The following day we gathered with two other Europas, Erich Trombley flew his
monowheel from Las Vegas, NV and Mike Duane flew his conventional gear from
Chandler, AZ, followed by a terrific dinner hosted by Jack & Alice McKenzie at
their home in Green Valley, AZ just south of Tucson.
