Default Hangar 9 80" Cap 232

Talk about strong, on Sat. I took out the Cap to do final engine tweaking before first flight on Sun. I dragged the fuse out and set it upside down in my Robart stand, went back to the truck to get my wing and found the wind (and some unstable ground) had caused the plane to fall off the stand and land on the rudder and horiz. stab. I thought it was broke for sure, but not even a ding in the covering, and the tail feathers were rock solid. Cant wait to get some more time this weekend, need to track down some 0% fuel for the moki though, a little detonation on the 5%. Once I know the engine is reliable the real fun will begin!
