Tundra kits in progress   KEN GIFFORD - Appleton, WI, USA Ken Gifford is from Appleton WI, just North of Oshkosh, Wisconsin.  He visited us during AirVenture 2005 in Oshkosh and took the TUNDRA up for a demo flight.  Ken was pleased with the flight and the TUNDRA's rugged construction and ordred a tail kit in August 2005, right after the AirVenture show.  Following are some pictures of Ken's assembly progress.

JIM KINNINGER - Wellington, NV, USA Mr. Kinninger came to the DreamAicraft factory in late October 2006 to take advantage of the first builder assist program to be given at the DreamAircraft factory.
