In a previous life I sailed and scuba dived the British Virgin Islands for a job. We talked about diving a lot more than we were actually down. You can sail day and night, but you can't stay down all day...........
Today was a good RV day, but,..........the wind was blowing and it was cold, a good day to hanger fly and work in the shop.
This morning an out of state guy, Miles C-170B / Harmond Rocket kit, came in and we talked Bush flying, RVs and Rockets, showed him around RV Central. He has a girl friend and needs to tell her sbout RV8s,,,,,,??? We went to lunch on the field, Hicks T67, Rio Concho Restaurant, with Roy and Vickey RV6, Rooster and Susan RV7a, Pat RV8. Good RV talk. After, he went to 52F, and I went to work.
I installed some shoulder harness cables in a RV7a. Drilled the wheel pant halves together (3) on the same 7a,,, a lot of sanding and fitting, and a lot of sanding and fitting,and a lot more sanding and fitting , ,,,,, installed nut plates on same, put it all together, added a bunch of flox and set aside to cure. Spent about 6 hours of quality time in a heated hanger/shop. All in all a very pleasent RV Day. No flying but a good one none the less. I had fun.
What did you do?
