cool thanks steve. I met Jim at the hotel bar up in toledo, and i was trying to talk to him
about his yak...the only problem was, I knew the words that i was TRYING to say,
but for some reason whatever i was drinking was keeping my words from sounding
like they did in my head.....probably sounded more like, "glick snicka haam too fo mee
to fly?"

Nice spotting dolly! I would have thought they would have hooked up a towbar to tow it with.

The plane looks great. One question though are the new ailerons that are being made, stock or are they going to be a upgraded version?
