While visiting a friend yesterday, I saw a Glasair sitting on the
ramp. My friend said that it is no longer being flown, and was given
to a now-defunct aviation school by the builder. Apparently it has a
blueprinted engine and was flown a good bit before this.


I am simply curious whether there's a person in the homebuilt
community who might be qualified and interested in resurrecting this
orphan... *I have no idea what its condition is - it simply looks
beautiful from a distance.


I have no ownership interest; am just a bystander... it seems a shame
to have a lovely craft like this simply gather dust.

urban myth


Actually, it's not an urban myth. I've had contact with the current
owner and indirect contact with the builder; and with 2 interested
homebuilders since I posted. I am not going to expose anyone's
airplane, n-number, or identity, to a discussion list without their
explicit permission. Sorry. Amongst mostly wonderful people there lurk
(others).

How about sharing with us the region of the country? state? city?
