Thanks for letting me know, James. I'll plan to be there by 10:00am, then. If it appears that you are going to arrive early, for any reason, let me know and I'll get there even earlier.

Unfortunately, between returning back to work a couple of weeks ago, and having it kick my butt with so much to do; and then getting sick last week, I have been tired and completely unmotivated to build, lately. I've done nothing on the wing the last couple weeks. But I am final sanding it now, and will have it covered before the day is up. (If I am lucky, I might even get some paint on it.) I also decided to reposition some of the switch settings on my radio the last time I flew, and ended up "dumb-thumbing it" when I momentarily forgot the new positions when landing, so I ended up raising my gear when I meant to kill the throttle. So, high speed and no gear meant I slid the belly of my Fw190 quite a ways down the asphalt runway. It tore through the covering and some of the wing skin, so I need to repair that today, as well. So, lots of covering to do today . . . my least favorite modeling activity. Guess that will make tomorrow that much sweeter!

Looking forward to seeing you and Matt!
