Ryan, did you get the email I sent you a week ago Monday?

I was talking to John out in PHX this afternoon and he had not heard from you…

Hi Ryan,

I was talking to John again today about some stuff I sent him for his Stearman, and he mentioned he had still not heard from you.

I’m not expert at these computer things; I sent you an email on April 2nd, and when you sent me a PM in response to my post above I sent something back right away, but I must be doing something wrong. Sorry!

Anyway, John knows a lot of guys out in PHX in the warbird scene and is willing to make some introductions. Give me a call at 320-864-4043 and I’ll give you his number.

A-7s

Those A-7s were up on Barnstormers for $250 000 a while back. I think Andy Taylor had them posted. ...... {{{{Mom said if I don’t have anything nice to say don’t say it at all }}}}.....

Just as a note: I did see the one A-7 up on EBay for $12 000 by its previous owner in Florida (I am sure it is the same one) the other A-7 not sure I have seen it for sale.

I believe a project such as the A-7 is very do-able... however, I think engines and support of that motor will be an issue.

Not to mention that the A-7 is a single seat aircraft. I think people that turn these aircraft airworthy do so not only for their pleasure but also to take people with them. Hence I think if the A-7 was a dual it would be much more palatable. Wish I had that choice though ;)
