Yes, got the biggest of the honey-do's handled. The took much longer than expected, which is normal. I just checked the outlook and it looks like there will be some VFR mixed with MVFR and spotty IFR. Later in the day it gets worse. I'll check the weather again in the morning, but it isn't looking too promising. Too bad I couldn't have come today, weather was severe clear. Either way, I'll call and let you know.

Mark,
I really hope you have gotten caught up on those "honey-do's" and are able to see your way to flying into Houston tomorrow. If the weather repeats what it has done today, it could be a smooth and beautiful flight.
I do have a lot of tools in case you need a tune up for the flight back....naaaahhhh , your plane actually fly's .

Chris,
Well, you can always go out to the airport and polish your turbo while you wait for your EC-2 to arrive. ;-)
If weather permits (and I get caught up on the "honey-do's") I may venture down your way this weekend. But before I fly again, I've got to get the EGT's hooked up after changing exhaust system. No need for me to call, you'll be able to hear me doing
my runup at 50R. That will give you about a 45 minute warning. Are you planning to be at the airport Saturday or Sunday?
Seriously, I'll call you in advance. How do I find your hangar once on the ground? From the YouTube videos, it appears that you've got more hangers at Ellington than Col. Sanders has chicken coops. I'll need a road map to find your hangar.

FINE, I guess it is obvious that a holiday that focuses on friends and family is more important than tending to your aviation project and posting your progress , discoveries and insight here. NO PROBLEM. We see where your loyalties lie and
it is certainly NOT helping satisfy my 'fix" of rotary knowledge, otherwise the silence would not be as deafening as an un-muffled 20b at full song.
Go ahead, eat your turkey, watch the Cowboys get beat, fall asleep with that evening cocktail dangling from your hand. I can wait....... I will be thinking of you all as I "serve and protect" while other officers, as well as all of you, enjoy the day
with their families. I will be checking the list with disappointment as no new emails get posted. Heavy sigh.
Oh, and Happy Thanksgiving. ;-)
