That is great news. Want to come and help me finish mine? It looks like I'm still 6 to 12 months away from my first flight.

Congrats, Pete. Too bad Norm Younie had all the fun. I keep my 9A in Langley. When you've flown off your hours, fly over... there's a bunch of RV's here that would love to give your airplane the white glove treatment.

Hi All,

I hope this works (the pictures I mean)

We got another hour in today. The left wing is slightly heavy. But everything else is working....that means learning curve..specially the programing of the GRT EIS 4000

Yaaaah

Great looking plane Pete. When I get my 7A done, I'll have to pop up and visit. Or maybe I'll make it down to the homecoming in a spam can.
