    Haha bud you don't have to worry about flying my stuff. I let pretty much anybody fly my stuff and I have a rule for myself when it comes to people flying my stuff.

    Not much done last night. Did install some swervos and then cut a new windshield for the Kadet. Just laid the 25 year old crusty original over top of a 2 liter Pepsi bottle, traced it and marked screw holes and cut it out. I think its an improvement. Gotta get those wrinkles out of the covering...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Took my 40 size profile out for a few flights today before heading to the grocery store. Fuel up get it running and I got that little piped 55ax screaming and running great.

    Got some more covering done on the kadet. Damn it's PIA to cover around a stab and fin that are attached to the fuse still but it's turning out ok. Also I do love it when the UPS truck delivers my morning wood. LOL

    Yeah this will be the third recover job for this guy. Turned a avistar into an L-4 grasshopper, almost done repairing and recovering a Kadet Sr, and then onto the edge. Got a badass scheme to put on it as well. Prolly will start a thread for it when I start the process.
