You say....

Killjoy is Killjoy in every land and language?

Killjoy = One who spoils the enthusiasm or fun of others.

One of your more creative attempts, BOb.

By the way, is that something like humor? ;-)

I was thinking more along the lines of 'Robert de la merde de chevaux.'

And with that we'll turn over all the cards. I concede
to Ron because anything else I say is likely to be
misconstrued :-)

There was a nice Vision discussion going until this loooong digression
into language. If anyone cares to get it back on track...

FYI, my 4-place Vision project is at
http://www.DivorceMagazine.com/Vision132 , and its construction
progress is pretty much in a tie with Scott VanderVeen's 4-place
Vision at http://www.arrow4graphics.com/Vision/index.htm (he's done
more on his cabin and FWF; I've done more on my wings).

(Tony A's 4-place project was mentioned earlier. He was indeed the
first 4-place builder, starting some years before me -- and his
beautiful project was the inspiration I needed to start mine. But
Tony made some moves and apparently hasn't had the time to do much
more work on his project. It's still in the unroofed fuselage stage.
Scott has pics of it on his site.)

My project is in Daytona Beach because that's where Steve Rahm (Vision
designer) lives. I've been working closely with Steve; the
construction started off in a corner of his hangar at Spruce Creek.
He's provided a great deal of excellent design advice over the 2.5
years (so far) of part-time construction. There's nothing "radical"
about the plane's design, so I'm fairly comfortable that it will fly
well.

Mine is all carbon-fiber and kevlar (except the glass tail to allow
for the antenna inside) and I carefully monitor every ounce that goes
into it. The fuselage was built vacuum-bagged and fold-a-plane method
(description on my site) which saved significant weight. It currently
weighs in at 630 pounds as you see it in the latest pictures on my
site. I've purchased the Jabiru 5100 (180HP 8 cylinder jewel) which
will add 260 pounds. With "all the other stuff" completed and
installed, I hope to keep its ramp weight at 1100-ish pounds, with an
all-glass full IFR panel (BMA). If I can hit that target weight-ish,
it should perform very nicely with a light fixed-pitch cruise prop.
Its wet wings will hold approx 80 gallons, plus a 12-gallon aux tank
in the tailcone, so I'll be able to fly loooong distances (I just hate
coming down). :-)
