Oshkosh anyone?

I'm flying up Sunday the 26th and I've told Troy he could use my plane for show and tell over in the ultralight area. If you're at the show come over and say hi.

Rick,
We will (hopefully) see you guys up there.
Sandra and I are slowly winding our way there in the camper, while acting as "ground crew" for my brother who is making the journey in his trike.
Actually finding each other in a crowd of thousands for a week is the tough part.

Currently on the ground in Calhoun, GA for rest and regroup.

My son Cody and I are staying in the dorms just a few miles north of the field.  We'll be coming in Sunday afternoon and staying through Friday afternoon.   We'll be at the "Just" booth often and look forward to seeing you guys there.  Pictures of my new nose gear Highlander will be on display at the booth.  I also put on a new dynafocal ring mount on the engine and the new quiet exhaust.  Love the changes!

Looks good Paul. Can we get some close-ups of the new nose wheel and an idea of how much longer/taller the new trigear is.

Lynn,

It is my "Highlander" main gear legs, just reversed to the opposite side and moved back along with a newly designed nose gear to work with their larger size over the escapade gear setup.  We used a 15" nose tire (normally the escapade main I think?) and 18" or 19" main tires.  I took my wife for a ride over to visit some friends yesterday and before we left they took the 3rd shot here.  It sort of shows the finished product up closer.  I must say I'm really impressed with several advantages from my perspective for the type of flying I'm doing.

Here is how the top of the stinger ties into the new engine mount.  The exhaust (not on yet) is simply the one Sam had put on his which I believe you now also have Lynn??
