John:

Thanks for asking.  Yes, the new windshield is in.  Took 3 days.  I 
hired  Casey Lewis (whom you might know) from up your way as he has 
replaced several LNC4 windshields.

FYI, my windshield crack  appeared to originate from an internal fault 
in the windshield., however, there were many other tiny cracks that were 
revealed after  the windshield was removed.  Dont know if the tiny 
cracks were a result of my takeoff incident in Vegas in 2003 or maybe we 
have an aging problem with the acrylic itself.

  I havent put the instrument panel back in yet as I am trying capture 
the engine mount bolts behind the firewall;  to allow me to tightened 
the bolts each annual from the engine side of the firewall.  Turns out 
to be a lot harder to do than I originally thought.

Best Regards, Bill Hogarty
