Greetings from Orange County, NY - 06N

Kevin Conklin here - build now based at 06N - Randall Airport, Middletown, NY. I was building a legacy Waiex and took some years off while prepping for retirement. That finally happened, moved my project to a hangar and started working on it again. I just discovered that SonexBuilders.net is no more … and had a panic attack! Got a tip on the FB group about this forum. Thank you for creating this. Of course I already have a question but will attempt to find the appropriate place to post it.

Welcome, Kevin. Thanks for joining!

Just as a reminder, I have a WW FlyCorvailr 3.0 conversion sitting on a sofa table in my family room waiting for me to get the firewall forward stage of the build.

Kevin, we were in the same Sonex workshop way back in 2011 I think. Glad you’re here and back building! I’m a year from retirement - congratulations!

We were indeed. My daughter who attended with me is now a professional pilot for one of the major legacy US airlines. Her younger sister is now an A&P working for a fortune 500 corp on their fleet of aircraft.
