Great idea Jim,

     Some day I am going to be trying to find your ( I think it was you ) laser setup for setting my Warp Drive blades.

Thanks,

Im still moving on things. No photos to share at the moment, but I've got the floor, torque tube and controls installed, the carpet is being fitted to allow the rudder peddles to go in, then the firewall, then...

We also have the right wing in fabric now, too. Maybe start the stitching process this week.

Great progress Larry!

[Av8r3400 1179]

A crappy photo of the floor, carpeted, in the cabin.  Started stitching the wing today.

[Av8r3400 1179]

Right wing stitched...

 

[Av8r3400 1179]

More dirty airplane photos...

Lindey in the making??

[Av8r3400 1179]

I doubt it, Joey.  There's too many little "flaws" in it to get a Lindy.  She's just a flyer.

 

 

[EDMO 1078]

On closer look - That "Kutey Fox" might not be so gentle! 

Would that be a Bat Fox, or a Vamp Fox?

 Looks good.

She's a Mangy Fox...

[EDMO 1078]

Looks too good to be mangy now!

Foxy!

[Av8r3400 1179]

Panels behind the seat carpeted and installed.

[EDMO 1078]

Here is my "Foxy", smiling to fly!  She actually got into my shoe and went to sleep when we first got her!

Now, she's a spoiled, fat-ass, little barker, who is as long as both of my shoes, toe to heel....and still sleeps on my shoes!

Looking great Larry! Can't wait to see the finished bird.

[Av8r3400 1179]

With a little luck it will be flying yet this year and out west next fall...

 

Hoping to put together an Idaho trip next September with the usual suspects from my neighborhood.

[dholly 718]

Mangy no more, looking good!

[Av8r3400 1179]

You'd never know that was Smitty's old ratty thing, would you?

[Av8r3400 1179]

Well, she's standing on her own legs as of today...

 

[Av8r3400 1179]

(Note the yard stick….)

[EDMO 1078]

Tall, Mangy, looking good - What GW are the Grove legs?

They look same height as my KF5 1500s, but maybe slimmer - Mine are 22 " to axle, and then radius of wheel & tire should be about 10 more inches with your tires...But mine are just in front of the strut attach fitting - puts tail about 4 feet off of ground.
