After reading of Tracy's misfortune this morning, I feel a little less
enthusiastic about this, but this afternoon, after being on the ground for
4660 days, C-FSTB finally returned to flight.
 Did one 20 minute flight then landed for an inspection and waited out a
thunderstorm, then up again for an hour. It mostly ran great with the
expected exception of high RPM, low MAP descent which is really only
possible to tune in the air.
I'll work on this tomorrow.
There is still a fair amount of wildfire smoke here, but weather is much
more unstable so its moving the smoke a lot so I can work with that.
  A few other observations but I'll share that later when I get more data.
One thing for sure though... a taildragger is much easier to fly in the air
than on the ground!

Todd
