Hey gang,

Thanks for the awesome response!

Well it looks like the consensus is to get my plane in the air, so I have moved forward with the project. I've contacted some guys from a local field, and made an appointment with an instructor for Sunday morning. Weather permitting, we'll be flying!

Terrell, I've been thinking about the next plane even before my PT-40 was finished, just didn't feel it was right to start work on something else having not even seen my first lift off yet. I suspect within the next few weeks I'll begin work on another. Hopefully the trainer won't explode on impact and I'll have the luxury of owning two working planes at one time when the next one is completed.

I'll keep y'all updated, thanks again for the support and advice. Wish me luck!

TX-Deck out.
