Hi, all!

I'm one of those people that spends way too much time at the airport (Brackett field in LaVerne, Ca.) working on my two projects. The first is a two seat tandem pusher of my own design that I've been working on for longer than I want to admit. The other is a finished BD-5 that I built while taking a sanity break from the first. The BD first flew in 1997, but is down at the moment while I fix a vaporlock problem in the fuel system. Its a great flying little airplane, far more stable and easy to fly than many think.

I've lent a hand on several other local HB projects including a LongEz, two RV's, and a Scamp. Parts that I have machined have ended up on many others as well. I've been repaid with help bucking the myriad rivets on my plane!
