Interesting day at the field. A young member brought a GP kit-built SkyBolt that an older member built some two decades ago. He glassed it; can you say HEAVY? But he put an OS .91 two-banger on it, so it has enough power; good flyer. But the important part is, I asked the youngster to see if it would fit in the back of my cross-over SUV completely put together. I've been concerned about that, because while I love bipes, I despise having to assemble/disassemble them every time I take one out; particularly now that I don't have as much strength/energy as I did.

Wonder of wonders, it fit just fine. If I quit being fatigued all the time, now that the radiation is done, I just might start this ARF sooner than I intended to.
