     You wouldn't believe it, I saw an *8 place* Coupe at Oshkosh!!!   
     Really, it had the same airfoil and everything! 
     
     Furthermore it could take off and land in under 300' and cruise at
170 
     mph.  Really amazing!
     
     No, really, it was a Sherpa-8 designed by fellow Oregonian  Byron 
     Root.  When I told him I was flying an Ercoupe he just couldn't say 
     enough good things about our little planes.  He said the wing on the 
     Sherpa-8 has the same foil as the Coupe and that it is a very good 
     choice with basically no pitching moment and low drag.  It was neat
to 
     hear!
     
     Hope you all had fun at Oshkosh.  Saw quite a few Coupes there but 
     didn't get a chance to talk to many Coupers.  Syd, I saw yours, very 
     nice and original :)
     
     Keep em flying (even if you have to make them 8-places!)
