    I had one get 6 miles from my house and the wonderful post office sent it all the way back to Ukraine. Poor Roman had to pay shipping the second time out of his own pocket to resend it. I offered to pay the second shipping and he said not to worry about it. Thats a good guy.

    How are you getting along with the covering system? I got a buddy doing a badlands ultralight with it. Looks like a nice product. Other than you use a lot of blue towels I really like that you don't get brush marks on the tapes.

    Looks good the two tubes that run from the spar carry through to the fire wall? Did you run them that way I have only seen that on the model 5-7

    ha oh come on FB aint that bad. Just dont read anything. I get at least 50 new airplane pics a day there to look at.
    Thats pretty cool I didn't know you could land on snow with floats. We are having a nice January here too in northwest Iowa. I could take this 30 and 40 degree weather all winter.

    That plane was alright. The finish on it would make a good bush plane. And I remember the DAR and I looking at the control system and saying that should not be in an airplane.  So you might want to be prepared to work on it to make it a really nice airplane.
