Default RE: Showtime

Glad to see this thread still going. I went over mine this morning... after two years, almost 100 flights, and never had the cowl off, I figure she was due for some maintenance...

I re-plumbed the tank and replaced all fuel lines, tightened a couple of motor mount bolts, hit a few wrinkled places with the iron, and re-built my "custom" tail wheel; the little bearing I added was about to give it up.

And that's it. The airframe is still sound, covering still in great shape. This model is more durable than I initially gave it credit for. Hopefully, I'll get another 100+ flights out of it. A really nice-flying airplane...

Any of the old crew from two years ago still got yours? bubbagates; drumbum, etc....?
