| Well the shop is neat and tidy once again. I delivered the prop blank to my processor and I await it's return. The shop is clean and will. Hopefully stay neat until next year when I start another build. Nunzio had fuel lines installed today and as an anti dust measure, a light coat of semigloss polycrylic. Baby photos should be in order the beginning of the week. Happy trails |

| I reengineered the aileron linkage, Made some modifications to the fuselage and reinstalled. The linkage works similar to the original. The control rods attach the ailerons to a toggle crank below the floor in the cockpit. Now if I lift one aileron the opposite side goes down. For those of you accustomed to the install of control surface mechanics this may seem trivial but for me this is a major accomplishment. Who knows maybe someday I will build a plane to fly and crash! |
