H o m e b uil d in g A c t i v i t i e s a t A ir Ve n t ur e 2 013 H omebuilder's Headquarters serves all the homebuilders who bring their aircraft to AirVenture, and it's a great source of information for those involved in the building process ... or thinking of building. Like many other areas at AirVenture, it's volunteers who keep the area alive. Here's some of the highlights from this year's activities in the Homebuilders area. Te Homebuilder's Hangar provides a great place for builders to learn about various aspects of the homebuilding process. Here, volunteers Dick and Bob Koehler, "stars" of the Hints for Homebuilders video series, hold a session on how to properly perform a compression check and time magnetos. Numerous workshops help builders and would-be builders learn the skills needed to build an aircraf. Tese gents are mastering the art of rib stitching for a fabric-covered aircraf. Te Homebuilders Welcome Wagon transports homebuilt pilots to Camp Schoeller afer they've unloaded their aircraf. It's these volunteers who help arriving pilots fnd a place to park their aircraf in the homebuilt parking area. Tanks for your service! 18 Vol.2 No.10 / October 2013 Photography by Jim Raeder and Mary Jones
