Hey Greg Doe. Hope your doing well. I am in a back brace to help my back heel, been doing a little work and ready to attach that bottom wing to my 45 Flying Fool. Decited to use my slant plug Fox 59. Did plan on my OS 50, but I think the Fox 59 will be a nice addition. Its heavier than the OS, but with all my mods and reinforcements it just might be the better choice for power. Any was trying to heel up and really enjoying our spring it’s been great! Keep them lines Straight and tight! AJ

Hey mr Doe busy is an understatement ran out of Nitrate Dope so I ordered. Quart from Air craft Spruce. Man them prices have gone up! Nitrate taughtin Dope was always cheaper but shipping matched the quart price. But that quart will last me a while. Glad to hear your doing well! Keep them lines tight and straight! AJ

Well my Nitrate dope arrived, ordered it from Aircraft Spruce. Quart size. The shipping was almost as high as the quart of Nitrate. They must have it in stores for several months. I normally sture it up,but that was an understatement. About an inch was solid on the bottom broke my stur stick. But finally a big piece broke loose. And that started the stur process. I stared and stared. Finally some white stuff broke loose. And settled to the top! Then some silver came up. Kept staring until it was smooth. I use a smaller pint can and seal up the quart. That way I can mix a little retarder. It’s curing now. Lots of Humidity to deal with. And on my third coat of Nitrate. AJ
