Default Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats on getting it ready for the inspection.

Try the link below for posting photos.

Understand that the photo is actually on the internet at a different location, and what you see here is due to a link to the other site, it is not a photo that is attached like you would in an email or similar.

Amazing. Yours looks eerily like one at Meadow Lake airport. Same access panels by the canopy, unique canopy, yellow engine, tube hanging down under left wing, under inflated tire, etc.

Congrats on your rocket being so close to flying!

I confess to being amazed that your location has gotten past Doug's ever-vigilant eye [ed. PM'd him to please change it. <g> dr]
