Default RE: Deception Build

Ed,

Thanks for the nice words. I'm kind of liking the way my Deception is coming along too. Won't be able to tell you what my wing weighs.... (no scale). It doesn't feel particularly heavy or light. It is what it is. The belly pan is pretty much done except for the bottom sheeting. That's coming along; will probably glue the bottom sheeting in tomorrow. Since my canopy is wood, I decided to glue it on and glass it along with the rest of the fuselage. The plane still needs final shaping and hinging (but not glueing) the control surfaces before glassing. Still haven't decided which engine to use. I have two Webra Speed .61s - one pumped, one not pumped. If I choose the pumped engine, I'll have to order the Perry carb 9100 for the Webra pumped engine. I set up the engine mount for the pumped engine so either will now fit.

Let's git 'em done.... I'm ready to stop building and fly.

Greg
