Last weekend I was over in Germany for the areo expo at Friedrichshafen.  
Vans aircarft  had a stand which was manned by  Ken Krueger ( for those who dont know, Ken is the chief engineer at Vans)  
 
I had to go over for a chat which lasted about 2 hours. I had to personally thank him for taking the majority of my disposable income on an aircraft which i can honestly say has changed my life for the better...  
 
As i said keep pounding those little blighters  Wink
