At the local mall today...

...there were airplanes and power parachutes. The local EAA was spreading the word about GA. One of the local CFIs had a table out with their business cards (last picture, background). It was fairly busy at times. Guys who were in Vietnam stopped by and reminisced for a bit.

It looks like it was a nice display. How'd they get that plane in there? Take the wings off?

They did take the wings off. The plan is under construction (if you look really close, you just might make out some clecoes on the top of the wing).

They also had an RV-7 fuselage and the wing for Teenie 2.

I was amazed at how thin the bulkhead aluminum was on the RV-7. This is not a dig at the design as I imagine the RVs follow similar design practices to certificated planes; one just doesn't usually see a production plane in this state of build.
