New Owner

[DSpence]

Well, it finally happened. After a few false starts, I finally took ownership of C-GVWP from Phillip Perry. I have been a member of COG for about 8 months and I have to admit the level of engagement amongst the members is unprecedented and so enjoyable. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading the posts and you have helped me tremendously in my purchase decision. Thank you.

I also had the opportunity to visit Jim Richards in Burlington earlier in September and his time and patience with me was greatly appreciated. He is a tremendous asset to the COG.

I look forward to reading, and hopefully contributing, to the COG in the years to come, although I have to admit, I am mechanically challenged. I am in awe of your knowledge of the Commander airplane. Please keep it going!

Don

Congratulations! A decision we all agree with here whole-heartedly! You've already met one of our finest, hope you will meet the rest of us next year at our fly-in!

... That will have you re-thinking things!

Re: New Owner

I absolutely love Kelowna and most everywhere else in BC. Let's have a Western Canada Fly-In! I would seriously try to make it.

Re: New Owner

Great looking new paint job! From WA State you are not that far away. Awesome scenery where you live. Been there many years ago.

Re: New Owner

Thank you everyone for your greetings. Hope to meet you sometime soon. Let me know if you plan to be in the area and I will treat you to some real beer, and a bunch of irrelevant stories, probably in that order!

A great wine region as well, and excellent skiing. Basically, there is just about nothing to not like about Kelowna! (Now, if BC could just get a decent hockey team.)
