Actually, believe it or not, we did get to work on it a little the other day. We now have over 1/2 the ribs done. 27 done and 19 to go. The spars are done, so if we can get the ribs done, the wings will go pretty fast. I think!
The experimental light-sport inspections are keeping me busy. Yesterday I did a light-sport and Saturday I have a Lancair IV-P. Talk about contrast!
BTW, Today I went over to Sulphur Springs to check on the first Texas Sport kit being built, by a 16 year old girl. She is doing a very nice job. She soloed a glider on her 14th birthday, soloed a Piper Pacer on her 16th birthday, and hopes to take her private check ride on her 17th birthday in the Texas Sport.
