Default More progress......

Well, its not lookin good for a testflight, as the winds are blowing just short of 40mph outside right now, and it is supposed to rain this weekend.......

I have had the opportunity to get more done on the Caudron though. I have finished all but a couple of details on the covering scheme, the cowl is painted and finished (first time I have gotten good results with LustreCoat). I also got the tank plumbed, and all the linkages soldered but the throttle linkage.....

I don't know what she weighs, but it is fairly light.

My hope is to testfly this weekend, as I most likely will not be able to after this weekend.

Time to tie up the details and take some pics....
