[a/s] Old vs. New A/S



	I don't know how everyone else feels, but one of the prime reasons I like
the older airstreams is their simplicity and attention to detail. with all
the new composites one would think that there would be a market for the
original designs, done with new technology. Whatta a market op for some
forward thinking THOR exec.

	My job for the FAA is transferring us to DC for awhile, so we had to find
accommodations. We have opted for a Coachman Futura 2000 29' to live in
while stationed there. Dev will tow our '67 A/S down to the DC area later in
the summer so we can continue working on her. I will need some reality-based
recreation to off-set the DC mind mange.

	We are thinning out our lives to fit the Futura .... what a chore !!!! I
know it's not an airstream, but for the price I am impressed with the
overall workmanship.
