28 days. Ugh.
My last RV flight was 28 days ago, but I fixed that Tuesday morning. The scheduling tumblers at the other two part time jobs allowed a quick trip out to the field for a tour of the area.
No pics in the air, just enjoying the scenery from 1,000’agl recharging the battery a bit. One pic on the ground.
Mental gyros realigned. I’m good for awhile…..;^)

Rocket style fuel tank vent
I decided to vent the fuel tanks rocket style instead of re-entry into the fuselage. The one thing I didn’t want to do was to put the exit in the wing root fairing so I went thru the wing spar and exited out the bottom skin. I also added a tiny hole on top of the line just before it exits in...

G3X Touch - Oddity...
Hive Mind, A friend of mines G3X Touch began showing the blinking "O" on the CAS. Except, he doesn't have a Marker Beacon receiver installed (He has a GMA 245). This just "showed up" on a recent flight and persists...even in the hangar with the door closed. Running 9.51 software, No errors...
