If two wings is good, three should be great!

Saturday March 29th., I got the RV-9 finished today, the flap linkage took a while, but I finally got it right.  Boy did it hail and rain a couple of times today, it sure makes one appreciate a roof over your head. I made a trip over to see how Steve and Dianne like their new Dishnet setup, they seemed pretty happy with it and had a couple of stories about it already.

Sunday March 30th.
I spent most of the day working on my new Fokker Dr 1.  It is a nice kit, I didn't even find much I wanted to reinforce.  I have been making a change to the top wing, burying the aileron servos in the wing, instead of hanging down underneath.  Maybe I will remember to take a picture of that tomorrow. Getting the middle and bottom wing lined up wasn't too bad a job, but that top wing is giving me fits.  It didn't help when I put the cabane struts on backwards and had to take it clear back off to turn them around.  It will go better tomorrow when I am fresh, but right now, I am not sure three wings is better than two.
Vera made a great dinner of steamed rice and chicken with home made biscuits.  I kept having to have one more biscuit, so I was pretty full when we finished.  There are four left, they may be my bed time snack.
