OK you guys--now from a womans point of view--I own an 415C Ercoupe not my husband, just me. When I purchased my "Lady Bug" over 7 years ago I was a green as a goad, (and that's pretty green). The first thing I did was to join the EOC. And the second thing I did was to learn to do some mechanic work (dirty finger nails and all). The Coupe Capers has been a God sent to me and other Coupe owners. I did not learn all that I might know now from the Capers but I did learn that there were many more Coupe owners out there like me. I started to get involved with the club and became interested in helping out where I could. The first thing that I did (and I am glad that someone higher than me, watches out over my ideas) I ran for the Region 11 directorship. Did not get it but I did learn how big Texas, Arkansas, Louisana and Oklahoma are--lots of members. So dumb and happy I volunteered to be the Arkansas Wing leader. I am saying all of this to say just one thing--We all love our lil Ercoupe and the people that seems to flock to this aircraft. We are not perfect in any way, shape, form or fashion. And we are living in the best times and in the best country there is--So lets all work together and help when and where we can. We do have a great thing going in the Capers and on the internet. I don't say much but I read this everyday and each and every one of you from VA to WA makes my day. Lets just all pull together and "keep 'em flying". I will see all of you at Sun & Fun.
