Hi Ed,
I'm all painted minus the cowlings (just in case I need cooling
modifications).
Installed the batteries and working on electrical, engine, building a prop,
ordering small and big parts. The more I work the more I feel like not
accomplishing much. The heat is on here in S. FL and I go early to the
hangar at about 5-6AM until noon. Than go back at 5PM until 9-10PM.
Couple more years of that and I will be done?
