Got my braces off my teeth and my engine mounted in the same week. Not sure which I'm happier about

Nice job Dwight!
Looks like you've made a lot of progress since I first visited your garage. (looks like you cleaned up a bit too..  ) Keep going. I'm dying to see your finished RV-10! As far as my progress, I plan on purchasing my Emp Kit at Oshkosh this year. Thanks again for inviting me to your house. If you need any help, or just want to show off your craftmanship, send me a PM (I'm right down the road).

Windows
Well, I have gotten 4 of the 5 windows installed.
It was every bit as bad as I expected........not. Not quite?
Yes, messy and smelly, and intimidating. But doable.
So far, I have worked on them two days last week, and the next day I felt like I had a case of allergies combined with a chest cold. I suspect it is a reaction to the glue........anybody else experience this after using the Weld On on their windows???
I know some folks are allergic to epoxy, I suspect there may be something similar going on with me.
For anybody considering doing a headliner, make a close out ring for the windows, and install it after the window. Do not make the same mistake I did, and let the upholstery shop talk you into installing the windows after the headliner, and just using masking tape to protect the upholstery.

Pat Stewart's RV 10 arrives in Zephyrhills (KZPH)
After a long Sunday ride from Alabama, we unloaded Pat's fuselage from the trailer and into a new (literally) hanger at ZPH:
Pat taking in the fact that his fuselage has a home:
Finished taking the previous photo and Pat reached inside and powered up the panel. Awesome - sorry turned off for the photo.
Next week - the wings move in.
Welcome to your new digs, Pat!

Gray Cowls
My finish kit arrived yesterday. I was surprised by the gray primier on the cowl. Must be something new Van's is doing.
