I've just got the float legs to finish cutting, drilling & bolting on. No big deal, so hope to fly in Jan. off the water, BrrrrrrRRR.
Also replacing all standard stainless hose clamps now in place with double wire hose clamps in PAIRS for redundancy.

Not started yet, waiting until I retire? Next year??
Getting all of the pieces together. Longer u/c legs arrived from Just last week, Engine (Rotec 2800) arrives this monday, awaiting engine mount and oil tank design from Rotec, prop ordered (76 x 52 ) arrives in New year. I'm getting restless.

Hey, my wife gave me a great birthday present. It is a two man survior backpack with loads of goodies and first-aid supplies. I put it in the very back for extra ballast!
Don't you love those spouses :?:

Great pic Alan!
#126 is still bound to the earth in Walhalla.
Fuse is ready to cover with all of the
mechanicals fitted.
I have started on the wings. I-beams in,
root ribs mounted, lift brackets riveted &
bonded. I will start mounting the trailing
edges after Christmas.
I just got my medical re-instated
after my surgery, so it's full speed
ahead, again.
Thanks everyone. Good thread, Dennis!

There are many things that happen really fast when you are
flying an airplane. There is no sense in rushing any of the others.
I would much rather be looking down at the runway, than up at it.
