More great pictures.  Now I understand how to setup the pull-pull.  I may do this when I build my next kit - probably the SSE.

I picked up a dubro tail wheel, blind nut, and spring from my LHS - I am going to use a similar setup to what I set up on my two scratch built planes - it has work very well and survived many hard landings - I need to glue a small piece of hardwood to the bottom of the rudder to put a screw through the spring.

I agree that this is a great kit.  I now realize how much stronger this plane will be than the ARFs I have.
