Does anyone remember the fly-in that Paul Poberezney was involved with for a few years after his retirement? I understand that it has continued on after he stopped being active in it. I emailed the person in charge, last year, but can't remember who it was and have not heard anymore from them.

Another 'bit' from my last week's work on the plane: One tip of the wood prop has about a 3" crack in it going through all but the last outer ply 'skin' on the back of the prop. It's a 53" prop, on an 1835 (presumably HAPI) VW. 1) Is repairing such a crack safe/economical, and if so, how does o
