Hello from Earth. George Dowell "Geo"

Post here once you join, and tell us about yourself so we have a clue who we are talking to.
Keep threads short here -- once you have something to say, there's a topic here somplace where it will fit -- and if not, let me know and I will make subforums as necessary. We want all of hard science and tech up here, and if something doesn't fit -- that's my fault and I will fix that for you. See the rules and tips in the parent forum, please.
Forum rules
This sub forum is for new menbers to announce themselves. Try not to create long threads here -- this is just for you to tell us who you are, and for us to say welcome. There are other forums to actually discuss real tech-science things here, and ask questions on. The idea hopefully is to have enough forums and subforums that nothing sci-tech related will be off-topic, there will be a place for it. If I missed something -- let me know, and I'll fix that.

My last flight was on a C47A after watching the 2nd to last shuttle take off we chartered a C47A from WW2 and took a flyover the launch site.

Cool, Nice choice for a charter! And a great way to watch a shuttle launch - I've never seen one myself.

This is my Chipmunk - after flying it awhile I started to do a restoration, which is "in progress" and going slowly.

This is another one of my projects that is progressing slowly... A SkyBolt. I redesigned the wings and fuselage for a radial engine, something like the Russian M-14P.

And this is me playing around in the Super Decathlon that I sold last year. Bad picture, but it's hard to take nice pictures while doing aerobatics.
