Sept 22, Wings of War at GCRCC.
Miles: 15
winds were 15-20 MPH. Only two of us showed up. We got a couple formation flights in and went home.

Mark's 6 pack!




New cowl and muffler held up well.
I actually won something!

Got lucky!
When disassembling the TF F4U, I noticed the Y harness to the ailerons insulation was worn and all three wires were bare. These could have, easily, touched each other. Also, the rudder servo arm screw was gone.
