Bob Reuther passed away about 2 months ago. He was a legend in the Nashville area. I grew up flying at the same field he did. I didn't know he helped design the Vertigo II.

Good luck!

I submitted the information Ray and Crankpin gave yesterday to Mickey Walker....founder of SPA, and approver of all new "legal aircraft".....see below

Hi Duane, The magazine is enough for me. Your reasoning is correct about the cut off date, lead time etc. I will contact Ed, (Hartley) and have him add it to the National list I have already put it on mine. Thanks. Mickey.

So you are GOOD TO GO as far as SPA is concerned

I have also notified Dan Gipe of Wing Mfg who owns the mold for the Vertigo II

Sometimes a little push....opens the door



I'm sorry Bob Reuther didn't live to see his plane added to the SPA list. I'm sure he would have enjoyed seeing one of his "children" appreciated so much.

OO-RAH!!! Vertigo II SPA legal!! To all concerned, thank you. Teamwork makes stuff happen.
