How's this for a good homebuilder day?
Down to the shop at dawn. Finish some 2000 grit work on the VS paint.
Over to the airport. Load up the engine crane.
Fire up a Cub. Spend an hour on airwork, informal transition training for a friend building a Rans S7. Cool blue day, wind 360 at 0, gusting to none.
Back to the house with said friend. Hang my IO390 in 38 minutes flat. Ha!
Raid the fridge.
Back to the airport, dump off the crane.
Lay out and chalk an 800 x 40 "strip" on our grass runway (complete with bomb drop target) for the EAA chapter spot landing contest next Saturday. (Ya'll come - 08A, 1PM)
Home, fire up the buffer, polish the VS, and hang it up to admire.
Bolt a starter and AFP fuel servo to the 390.
Beer.
Can it get any better?
