Right on Jet22b, I also was out yesterday and flew in the smoke, wish you Washington folks would keep it home, actually we are also producing a lot ourselves here in N. Idaho. My Escapade has quite a few flights now
and the only problem was losing an Aileron screw in flight. The whole batch are now Loctited with red, no need for more of that, also had to re-do the Muffler bolts. The DLE 35ra does produce lots of power and the airframe
pays the price, I am paying close attention to such, now more than ever.

Between flying and watching the big jet airtankers coming and going all day, because they were in a hurry they shortcutted close to our field so we watched closley to avoid any problems.
