We've got one membership for sale - mine, unfortunately, as it seems I won't be getting a medical certificate again. Three nice planes - 172, 182 and an Arrow. Limited membership, easy scheduling, low buy-in and dues, and as far as I know there has never been an assessment for expenses. Contact me if you're interested.
 
Not as sorry as I am. But, hey, someone's going to be flying cheap!

I'd call it a certainty. I didn't wait 35 years to get a license just to give up this easily.

I can relate to that feeling. Got my license three years ago (now 57) and was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis a year ago. So far I haven't been forced to switch from PP so soon after getting the license. Take care.
 
Wish we had a club like that near here....

Sorry about the medical, good luck with the LSA!
 
Darn! Sorry about the medical. I guess that means no RV-7 project after all. :( RV-12, maybe? :)

Thanks. Right now I'm just looking for a good home for the RV-7 so I can make room in the garage for the 12. I don't want to have the tailcone and wings delivered and have no place to work on them.

On the bright side, I'm used to flying a 172 with no wheel fairings, so pretty much anything is a step up speed-wise! I really was looking forward to 160-170 kt cruise, but I suppose I'll live.

I've got an empty hangar you can use if you need one. :yes:

RV-12's cruise 130MPH all day, and a hoot to fly. 4.5 GPH or mogas. Don't think of it as a step down, think of it as flying green! Less fuel and no lead! :yes:

;)

Freeing up the space currently occupied by a pair of RV-7 wings is important. Freeing up the cash currently tied up in an RV-7 project is almost equally important. I figure I will need to order the 12 empennage and wings at the same time due to the lead time on the wings.

I'll be done building a lot sooner, too. Which is important, considering there isn't squat available for me to fly while I'm building now.
