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

Have a question to you gentleman. Building a Sportster 60 and just about to build the wing. The wing has 2.5 degrees of dihedral per wing panel or 5 degrees total wing tip to wing tip. Has anyone built this plane and removed the dihedral and built it as flat wing. If so what was out come and did you like it. I built a AstrHog once and removed the dihedral and it was not good. The plane flew great everything was fine until you applied the rudder in the air the plane would turn in the opposite direction to the rudder input. Thanks for your help.

Well getting ready for JoeNall. Spent the day with my flying buddy and cleaned up the fifth wheel trailer and checked all the wheels removed them checked the brakes and re packed the four bearings. Checked everything else and now it is ready for the long trip to JoeNall always look forward to going there. This will be the first time with the trailer will see what it is like.

Stop by and pick me up. I would be happy to do your house cleaning in your trailer for a free ride to the "NALL".

You are nice guy but I just checked your location it 2200 miles just to get to you. Now we shave drive back to the east cost and then down to JoeNall and back sorry but no can do, that would be around 6000 miles total. Sorry.

That is hard to believe. I was really interested in the plane and was going to take a good look at it at JoeNall well I guess you snooze you loose. Still hoping that is not true.

Think I'll be pulling an all nighter. Time to make the surfaces move.
