well i got one of my pay checks from work soo ill be buying my parts and paint this week soo hopefuly flying soon im going to put the tail wheel as a pull pull and the tail is going to have flying wires cause theres a bit of a problen with the rudder not being streight. im not sure how it happened maby the covering was too tight one one side. i have to re enforce the motor mounts the vibration the motor cause it to dig the bolts deeper in soo im adding metal. and just for the test it will be white primmer just so i know it all works befor i spend all that money and end up ripping it off to fix crap.

welll i went a bought more parts but being the guy that loves to build i bout some parts to change sooo a new tail wheel will be going on i dont think the tail wheel i have on it will deal with the stress of hard ass lanfdings and i will be buying more wood to strenghthen the main landing gear and fire wall. other them what i mentioned there will be a pull pull tail wheel system with spring dampneres. i will need to cut the taill a little apart to fix the tail wheel but itll look good its rated for 12 -22 pounds and the plane waighs close to 13 so its good i also got rid of the nose cone and am useing a prop nut. um oh i have desided to do the flight but acording to the feild i joined i have to do a training cource befor i can fly there soo damn ive been flying for soo long now and now i need training kinda pisses me off
