Carl:
Congratulations. I think you'll enjoy the building experience, particularly if you haven't built before. What area of the country are you in?

Pretty interesting. I'm still waiting on some parts. Wings are 90% done except for some cosmetic work. Hooking up cable now. The nice part about this one - is I know what everything is and where it goes. Makes it go alot faster.

New Richmond, Ohio - that would be southeast of Cincinnati. Next door neighbor to Rick Mullins - 2009 Grand Champion.

Hey Carl

If you get yours built and flying before I do, I'm gonna scream! (I'm starting to paint so yer gonna hafta kick some butt to beat me into athe air) :lol:

Anyhow, congratulations! I think I detect another Grand Champ in the making.

You and Rick hop in that Grand Champion bird of his and come up and see me sometime ( and let the Knox County folk see that the Highlander is for real and not a figment of my imagination.)

When I die, please let me go peacefully in my sleep - like my grandfather...and not screaming and crying like the passengers in his airplane!

Nice job! I can't wait to get that far with Lima Charlie (#126)

Seems like yours is sitting low in the back? Looks funny... :wink:

Here is mine... :D

Be safe!

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.

Oh. I was wondering what that was... :D

I am not building a Grand Champion.
I'm building an airplane & I intend
to wear it out! :wink:

Be safe!
