hey guys...got the vert. stabilizer fixed. the 2 metal studs that go through the tail made my rudder split in half at the bottom of the stabilizer. All i did was spread it open and put some epoxy in there and squish it together. Good as new. I went out the flying field today and took it up for its maiden flight after the crash... Man does it feel good to see it get airborne and know that you fixed it yourself. And it flew better than it did before. I was soo pumped, and i came in for a nice gentle landings each time. Just thought i would follow up on the progress i made...My plane is now, what us mechanics would call,...in "airworthy condition"

There was an older guy right beside me on my second flight up today and was telling me how to do all these cool little(simple) tricks...and it did them without a problem...glad i choose the avistar, it really shines when you start doin aerobatic maneuvers.

Just fillin you in...Finally got it done...AND IT FLIES!

Thanks for all your help!
