    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I really can't. I think my son would have a melt down if I did. LOL So I got the Smart Fly installed into the Pilot Edge and I realized something that really pleased me about this plane. I never deleted my last Pilot Edge from the memory on my radio. So basically, set up is going to take me...

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    A few little accomplishments on my new Edge today. The 111 remounted, less 3/16" clearance it originally had. Should give me right at 1/8" between the spinner back plate and face of cowl spinner ring. Next, re-wrap the pick up lead and the sparkle wires, and loom them. DLE's out...NGK's...

    Wanted Exhaust System

    Hey everyone... I am looking for a complete exhaust system for my DLE 111. I prefer MTW 75 front dump and DA/MTW headers. Will consider rear dump if really nice. Not interested in accordion style headers. Any one have something they would consider parting with?

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    No work on the Pitts the last few days. Waiting for my last coat of Purple then I can clear it. So what did I do instead? Well drive 1050 miles in one day to pick up 2 flat out stolen planes. What else? LOL. Not literally everyone. Just in the price I paid for them. First, an Aero-works QB 100cc...

    I agree, but I can still see a scosh of a difference. Just spoke with Wings West and they did mention with some colors, Pearl Blue and obviously the Pearl Purple, the paint will look good...but....that last final coat before the clear is what makes them pop. I just tossed the cowl on last night...

    Sport JTEC RADIOWAVE 26% Pitts Model 12

    Hey my friend. The wheels are an early version of White Rose. Vern does not make this style any longer. They were originally on the big Yak but they were too small in my opinion. So the Monster Yak got brand new appropriately fitting Airman wheels and these got a home on the Pitts. For now anyway.

    Thanks.... I really hope so. I so want to put it on the plane now. LOL.... but I will be patient. I really think it needs one more coat to match the covering perfectly. And then the clear. But all in good time right?

    So, I am thinking that it is time to get this Pitts finished up. I feel today is a good day to mask off the red and white and make it all purple. What do you all think?
