"32. 2006 – Nason/Sequoia: F.8L Sequoia N227DT (grand champion plans built)
Dave Nason, the builder/owner of this plane, is a fellow chapter member. I've got several of his airplane. These are lower-resolution versions. Drop me an email if you'd like the full-resolution copies. I also few a Cessna while a buddy shot some good air-to-air...I can get him in touch with you, if you like.
(Hey, my favorite...but I'm biased....)
Taken at the Arlington Fly-In, I believe in 2002.
Taken at AirVenture 2003. That's Dave in the matching red shirt.

Fantastic, Ron - thanks! I have a couple of pics of that airplane as well (I used to see it at Arlington when I lived out that way, and I got to go flying with Dave in it here last year) but none as nice as yours. Sue Lurvey from our Library is going to contact you about getting a high-res print-ready version.
Thanks again - and to everyone else, please keep 'em coming!

Hi Hal,
I have several photos of construction and assembly that I could provide of the Charger.
These are a few examples.
Gilmore family at Oshkosh 2009, wife DiAnn, daughter Jama, son Brett and me.
EAA Chapter 226 - Anderson/Muncie project tour in the Charger factory, my two car garage with about 20+ people, February 2009
Saturday evening with the Lindy, Oshkosh 2009
This photo is from October 2009, second test flight of NX279Y, flown by Mike Finney at his home strip II77.
Best regards,
Mark Gilmore
