However, I am really committed to getting some very nice photos, so please let me know when you're going to maiden and I will make every effort to be there. I used to photograph things for a living, so I'm a much better photographer than I am an aerobatic pilot!
This weekend looks not so good, with the storm named Earl causing some commotion.
Definitely....This weekend and next are out for me. I am about halfway done with sealing of pin striping and graphics. Fuse and tail feathers have been sealed. Wings next. I'll do my best to make it come out as I pictured it in my mind. It's been 4 years with several starts and stops, so I am soooo ready to move on to something new.
Sometime after mid Sept for the maiden. I won't maiden it though until after the photo shoot. And NO, I am not superstitious. It'll be fine
BTW- just received my old engine from Todd. Bearings replaced and he installed the new prop drive washer but without the pins. Evidently I've been running the engine a little rich.... carbon build up. He suggested leaner top end but richer low end. Wish these Walbros came in 3 needle version
