Happy Holidays From GPASC!
Steve and Linda at Great Plains Aircraft hope that this holiday season finds you and your family in great spirits and good health. We thank you for your support over the past year and the 21 years prior to that.

Sun & Fun Update!
The date for 2004 Sun & Fun fly-in has been changed again. The new dates are Tuesday, April 13 through Monday, April 19. We will have our usual commercial display in Building A. We will be conducting the VW engine workshop again this year, but have changed the time because of the air show noise and the heat that builds inside the workshop tent in the afternoon.

The schedule will be as follows:
Tuesday 10 am until 12:00 PM engine disassembly
Wednesday 10 am until 1:00 PM engine assembly
Thursday 10 am until 12:00 PM engine disassembly
Friday 10 am until 1:00 PM engine assembly
To be held in the Engine Workshop Tent

We will also be conducting a VW Engine Forum. Check the forum schedule for the exact time and tent number. Tentatively scheduled for Thursday at 1 pm.


Fred Keip will be conducting the Sonerai Forum. Check the forum schedule for the exact time and tent number.

Single Port Heads.
Single Port Head We have not been able to locate any of the single port heads in the last few months. The last ones we did locate were twice the normal price. The only single port heads we can find are rebuilt. When your single port heads need to be replaced, you may have to make the move to dual port heads and you will also have to change your intake manifold.
