After nearly eight years and 2700 hours of building, Van's kit #60316
slipped the surly bonds at approximately 10:45 AM, May 28th, at San
Geronimo Airport (8T8) near San Antonio. A Memorial Day to
remember. N11CB, a slow built RV-6A Quickbuild, was powered by an
IO-320 Lycoming with AFP fuel injection and Jeff Rose Electroair
Ignition turning a Whirlwind 3 blade prop. Flown by owner/builder
Charlie Brame, the bird leapt into the air after a 300 foot take off
roll and flew straight and level with hands off and feet flat on the
floor. IFR equipped, it weighed 1100# in prime. Many thanks go to
members of this list, all the San Antonio area RV-builders, EAA
Chapter 35, and, especially, to my very good friend, Paul McReynolds,
EAA Tech Advisor and RV-Guru, RV builder Extraordinaire, 1987 Oshkosh
Grand Champion and Orville Wright Award Winner.
