The news and that cowling just forces a smile on a Monday morning.  
Congratulations, and I'm happy to hear you made it back.

Congratulations to Mark also.  It's encouraging to hear reports that 
don't start with cooling issues, and even the noise issues are slowly 
disappearing.

I met Steve down at Harnett County Airport (HRJ) a week or so ago to 
have a look at his Cozy.  He's looking to get just a little more cooling 
out of his system.  I think he just needs to clean up some cruft left 
over from other modifications he's done, but I was extremely impressed 
with how quiet the plane was even when he revved it up.  Mark commented 
that he though it was quieter than they typical Lycoming, Steve.

I finished my panel this weekend, and after a few more punch-list items 
I should be moving to the engine installation full-time.  I'm trying 
hard to keep myself from getting excited and rushing through the final 
steps of the process.
