Bruce, The crowd grows ...now with pitchforks and torches looking to see pictures.

Congratulations to you no matter what. That is a long time to gut it out! I am hoping no more than 5 years on mine but already find it year three. But all enjoyable times spent at the Airport in the hangar They are a labor of love no doubt!

So fun!!! Flew beautifully. Need a slight adjustment on rudder trim tab but other than that, really happy with the way she flies. Thanks for all of your input over the last 11 years! Couldn't have done it without you all!
