I want to say thanks to the guys who maintain this discussion group. I planon building soon, and have been saving all of the great building tips, emailadresses, and vendor adresses on all the mods that I want to try on myplane. I have a question for you guys . . . not Piet related, but one ofyou will know the answer anyway, given all the stuff you guys know. Aretired Boing engineer is mentoring my project, and he has been a tremendoushelp to me so far. He is working on a project of his own design and istrying to get some information on an old design and designer. Since he isnot computer literate, I told him I would search the net for him.He is looking for information on a late 60's, early 70's single seat VWpowered "MacDonald S-21" (orS-20.) The designer, Robert A. MacDonald,worked for Lear in Reno in the seventies and eighties. Where can I ask foror find information on this design for my friend?Thanks, Andy pickles(at)snowcrest.net (will be sawing fir by Summer!)________________________________________________________________________________
