Rene,
I removed the ad. Please let me know if you have any feedback about
the classified ads. (and you're welcome.)

There have been a couple of recent incidents of first time flyers
crashing their newly purchased Q's on first flight, and I intend to
write an article about this in the next newsletter. If anyone has some
suggestions about how to smack some sense into some of the low time
pilots, with more money (or credit) than skill, please contact me
offlist.

As the Q-munity gets a little older, I think we'll see more planes up
for sale, and lots of them being snapped up by younger folks interested
in this "cool" looking design. I'm all for handing out Darwin Awards,
(hey it makes the gene pool stronger), but I'm concerned about giving an
even worse reputation to a good design.

Let me know what you all think.

Warm regards,
Dan Yager

individuals.

Another high number of accidents is generated through war birds, and
the builder of a new homebuilt right at the 50 hour mark.

Hi All,
I'm very sad to report that Dr. Steve's Q2 C-GMBK was involved in

an accident this past Friday, June 10, 2010.  The new owner was
attempting to fly from Abbotsford throught the Rockies to his home
base in Alberta.  He tried to land on the highway in the rockies near
Field, BC.  I still don't know all the details and will not speculate
on what happened at this point in time.

The new owner has non life threatening head injuries and is

recovering in hospital.  He will be ok.

I didn't think Gary was making props for the 0200. Last I heard it was only for the LYC. Alan Thayer got a new one the other day for his Long EZE and it really looked nice.
