By golly I think you guys have hit the nail on the head with a solution to the energy problem, everyone must disconnect their brakes in order to save fuel. Great idea.

The money you save can go to your insurance premium.

Well after spending 3 hours on the property for lawn care, I decided to cool down by getting back on the Laser.

I made a bunch of 1/4 square balsa and trial fitted with the bulkheads , so far it is good to go for gluing..
I hope to get back on the wings soon but still waiting for the sheeting.
