I remember seeing the EAA ads in magazines in about 68' or so, just about when I started buying a few airplane mags. But I think the thing that really did it was seeing a Chapter booth at the Minnesota State Fair in it must have been '68. One of the local Chapters had a booth set up with some homebuilt parts and one of those was a wood rib. I just fell in love with that spruce and mahogany truss rib and the idea of building a plane was pretty cool too.
My interests are in fun and interesting planes, whether they're homebuilts, antiques and classics or warbirds.
I joined the EAA in January 1969 when I was still 15.
My first Oshkosh was in '72 when I rode my 350 Honda there with not much more than a backpack and a pup tent.
