N916K
Well Known Member
After way too many months N916K is back flying with a shiny new paint job. And a new rudder, and some new elevators, and much more fiberglass.
The weight was a little higher than I expected. Maybe it's just the different scales I used this time. 1074lbs with everything attached and painted, including engine oil, interior, and a bunch of junk in the map box and in the underfloor storage.
The rudder and elevators developed cracks over the last few years. I made some fixes that I believe will take care of that problem. Plus the second time you build the tail it only takes a weekend and looks much better.
I will post some photos soon.
