Congratulations Ron, what a beautiful aircraft.
I envy you truth be told, but someday I will be where you are.
Do take care and above all....be safe and make the right decisions in
regards to fly/no fly.........wouldn't want to break your beautiful new
airplane or yourself, huh? :>)
Do take care,
Steve Soza-Gorham
