Bill,
Thanks for the informative links to Skybright and the Decal Pro......looks like you made both work wonderfully for you on your nice -9.
Your website had a great tutorial on using the labeling system.
Sorry I didn't get to speak to you at Stormy's, although I did meet Nora and her friend that was excited about her first RV ride......
I'll look forward to running into you again.
I enjoyed your pictures from Stormy's as they were completely different from my views. I love picasa... wonderful way to share.
Although a website like yours seems pretty nice too.
Do you fly out North much? like MTV for lunch?
Regards,
Bob Martin

Bob,
The LED position and strobe lights I have on the -9 can be purchased from Skybright. At the time they sold the set w/o the white tail light but the circuit board was the same as they now sell. I simply cut the unused portion of the circuit board off using a band saw. Unfortunately they didn’t include the cover shown on the complete unit.
If I were to do it today, I would still buy the unit, cut the white LED’s off, and cut the plastic cover to fit just over the position lights and install them the same way as you see in that picture you took.
The other question I had was regarding my lettering, which were done using the DecalPro system. I really like the results as I have a textured panel and plastic labels won’t stick to it. The only downside is, there is a steep learning curve to the system.

Larry Burruss and I flew our RV-6's (Veggie Tale Squadron) to Stormy's wonderful 2008 fly-in BBQ.
It was good to see old friends and make new one. Especially to meet people I only had read about
or emailed. I think we were the last to arrive and almost the last to leave, by air.
Stormy even took his 6A out and flew overhead with some nice rolls added for fun!
I tried to take some pictures although I missed all the inside goodies and the actually GRILLING.
I'm pretty sure Stormy hired a staff to do the cooking as it was wonderful and I never saw Stormy
around the grill as he was the perfect host! Thanks Stormy!!
Looking forward to next year!
Enjoy the Picasa link to the pictures.

Bob,
I hear you, we left and as we were taxing out, I mentioned to Nora that I didn’t introduce myself. Sorry about that.
I’ve been to MTV twice in the last year. Our new favorite place to eat is 5NC3 as they have a VERY good BBQ restaurant right on the field. The owner of the field also owns the restaurant and is the president of the local EAA chapter (He has a full scale SE5 that was used in The Aviator). Needless to say, you don’t need permission to land there, just drop in for some of the best BBQ around. If the Veggie Tail Squadron ever feels like some BBQ, let us know.
Jacque had a great time. That was her first ever ride in a small plane and had the chance to ride up in Randy’s -7 and back in Reno’s -8. Talk about a LOT of pictures, it was tough selecting just a few.
Thanks for the complements on the -9, we have really enjoyed it (160+ hours in 11 months). One of these days it might actually get painted. It doesn’t do too bad on 135 HP, even as hot as it was on Saturday. Too bad you weren’t there for my helicopter landing. Bill or Bill can explain. That long wing just performs so well!
Bill, the other Bill
