I've just heard through the Volksplane yahoo group, that Bud Evans died on the 17th August aged 96.
Love them or loathe them, none can doubt that the Evans VP1 and VP2 have made a significant mark on the homebuilt aircraft world. We owe men like Bud a huge "Thankyou!" for making the dream of building and owning your own aeroplane an achievable reality.
