CONGRATULATIONS! When I received my pink slip several years ago, A retired FedEx pilot shook my hand and told me that only about 15% of people who ever start to build an Aircraft actually finish it. I Don?t know where he got the information and 15% seems low to me. Anyway, You?re now officially a member of an elite club. Enjoy the flying!

Way to go! I'm sure you'll have your test time flown off by the 1st Saturday in November; plan on being the 1st -14 to attend our annual Pumpkin Drop here at Slobovia Outernational, just north of Jackson MS.

Yeah Bill, you better cough up some serious credit to your helper. Failure to do so might be what Ms. Patti calls a "jewelry offense"

Phoenix gets the lion's share of the credit. Not only has she been there every step keeping us organized but somehow managed to enjoy it while putting up with me at the same time. Not sure how she does it but I am very thankful. Amazing woman.
