Got another update on the web site a week or so ago, related to the inlet spikes.

Was out last Sunday, and got 3 great flights on it, with the new spikes installed. It is really starting to haul now. The only thing left, aerodynamically wise, is finishing the gear doors, to close up the bottom. Vertical was good, although I was only pulling it up to about 45-60 degrees, to see what climb it had. Starting to have some fun with it now, now that most of the aerodynamic things are resolved. Also, finished fine tuning the balance. Most of the recent flights have been taking out 3 ounces of lead from the nose per flight, and the last couple of flights started to feel just about right. In the end, removed about one pound from the nose, from the conservative starting point.
