FRED not Fred

[cluttonfred]

Hi, all, I am longtime homebuilt airplane enthusiast and have run https://cluttonfred.info on behalf of the recently departed Eric Clutton for more than ten years. I also set up https://wolfboredomfighter.tumblr.com not long ago at the request of some BF fans. While my aviation tends tend toward the low and slow (Clutton FRED, Evans Volksplane, etc.), I have long been a fan of the Sonerais and would like to learn more. Cheers, Matthew

I may do them with hacksaw, file & emery cloth and Pretend I’m Bill Bernhard.

Well my bad, I misspelled Bill’s last name it is spelled Brennand.

Is there anyone in eaa chapter 14 at Brown Field, San Diego, Ca that is or has built a FRED. I’m at the sourcing Spruce or Northern White Pine wood stage. Steve K.
