New Projects

Monday I started on my new project, a Pitts S-2B. The carbon fiber I ordered for reinforcements came and I got the first four pieces installed but not completely glued.  Today I mounted the landing gear and added an epoxy chopped fiberglass mix to parts of the landing gear reinforcements.
James and Dalton came up today and we installed a new rear wiper blade assembly on his Subaru.  We also figured out what was going on with a warning light that was on.  James wanted to run the radio controlled truck the last couple of times he has been here but the batteries were not charged.  I had them charged today so he and Dalton could run it.  I caught Dalton doing a pretty good wheelie in this picture.
This evening I went out to the shop, did some more work on the Pitts and got out my project for the Sanderson Field Radio Control Flyers Winter Build Challenge.  I built the P-39 last year, but I did not get it done in time.  The Skylane is lot simpler build so I shouldn't have any problem finishing it in time.
