Brian, thrust plates are southbound.

Lord, countless hours of checking and double checking still resulted in my mentor discovering the rudder inputs were reversed before maiden. Sometimes one becomes absorbed to a point where as they become blind to something so simply obvious, that it makes you wonder. I'm known for assembling planes that require no adjustments for true flight, yet, miss something so small. Great devastation is often the result of little mistakes. The weather right now is perfect. Sun, light steady wind, possible threat of rain (which was supposed to have come and gone by now). I'm going flying, I'm going flying. I'll post the results, second time out so far. This time with the cowl on. Joe
