Windows are in!
Just finished getting all the windows and windshield bonded in place. Not too many more tasks to go before transporting the fuselage out to the hangar. 
Well, I might put in a couple MONTHS of filling and sanding before doing that.

The magic scoop is in my basement. I'm moving the EFI business out to the airport in January so I have to make as much room as possible for all the shop and lab equipment. You'll have to be patient!
I might add that we picked the best day to transport the fuselage- encountering a snow flurry halfway out. Of course the sun came out about an hour later. 
At least I got to remove 3 years of dust off the plane as we wiped all the water off it. It's nice and shiny now. |

Ross,
This is what I meant. No need to send viewers off to imageshack.

Thanks Bill. They changed their site a few months back and I fooled around trying to make the image appear directly and gave up.

Taxi Tests
Taxi tests a couple of days ago. Everything worked as advertised. Oil leak last week ended up requiring a new front seal in the engine. Weighed the airplane today and now appear to own the heaviest RV-10 in the fleet at 1769 lbs. Flightline AC air conditioner and SafeAir1 extended range tanks make this no surprise. Empty CG is 109.38.
