    Did not get it out for a flight test. Just as well. Usually ends up adding more work lol. Did get my #2 x 3/8ths hex cap machine screws in from RTL and got the wind screen retainers painted. Screws look much better than the ones I had in it .

    Perhaps I should lol. To be honest though the builder did a great job to begin with. When I was Googling Sig Clipped Wing Cub......along the trail of photos this popped up. I think it's Robert and the plane! I do enjoy restorations though. Remember this one?

    Sorry to have to hear that. But leading edge slats freezing up after take off is not good. Just the opposite down here. Windy warm and wet.
