Brett Ferrell N44VF

Your host sports an as-yet-unpainted, high-compression-IO540-powered XL fixed gear. I wrote a piece for the fourth quarter 2002 Velocity Views.

N44VF was damaged in an off-airport landing in Otsico, Indiana while en route to the CSA Rough River Canard Fly-in at Rough River State Park outside of Louisville, Kentucky. Read about it here and see some pictures below.
