    I just did an unaudited tally - if we count OBC's votes (because of his time zone issues)

    CogAir has 4 votes
    Dragonfly has 4 votes
    OpenFly has 3 votes
    IcarUS has 3 votes
    Hover Prop has 2 votes
    ...all the other contenders have one vote each.

    There you go Matt, the people have spoken, the revolution is over.

    You could put those five into a poll over the weekend to see if any of them REALLY win by popular demand.

    Ciao!!

    Since I'm almost off (well, in 3 min. I am, I think) - I can now be a "people" too, right?
    My submissions:

    2 SOAR

    -Matt

    SOAR has a different meaning here... :) (BTW, Tom Bunn is the man to get to know if you have any resistance to flying.. )

    Gee, can't we have a 18 hour break from the forum ;(

    It was Saturday here and we went and visited two of our boys and their wives and the grandkids :-) Now it is 4:45am here!

    Just had a big storm blow through and had to check the boa, soon may as well check the forum too - and my Motorola XOOM :-)

    Congrats, Lanternfish. Don't let all the sour grapes around here ruin your glory - it's a gr8t name.

    Next contest: who is gonna be the first to put it on his/her license plate?

    I'll keep out of the controversy and see if wifey will buy me the plate for Xmas.

    Congrats, Lanterfish. The best man won. We had a lot of fun thinking up clever names, but much as I liked OpenFly, I realize it was not quite what parents might approve of.

    What I am now wondering is for how much and when can I buy one of these ELEV8s.
