Larry - So happy for ya. I followed your lead and asked Shirley and daughter for an early Father's Day present. They agreed but needed time to gather their money. I smiled and they agreed to end of May. That gives me about 15 days to get the Avenger ready to weight and balance when the Xicoy will arrive. Wondering why the one measurement did not come from the front of the cowl but after reading the downloaded instructions, it only asked for a measurement from the mains to where you want the weight to go. I am thinking that the weight of the engine is taken into consideration with the weight readings on the main wheels. Can't wait but I have work to do. Started flying a large taildragger (Valiant) to prep for the Avenger. Will post soon. Chic
