Truly a piece of art Elbee

Awesome! I feel like I need to spread some sand on your driveway to soak up the dripping oil, grease! 🤣😁

Thank you Gentlemen.

I enjoy the challenges.

We learn from each build, though it seems these don't get any faster or easier.

You know the old saying about round engines: if it isn't dripping oil when you go out to fly it, Don't do it! That means there is NO oil in the tank! If it is dripping oil, that's probably a Good
thing!

Dave,

I owned a V-12 Jaguar XK E-type for 20+ years and an MGB GT before that.

I am familiar with the concept.

Funny! In college one of my roommates had a Fiat Spyder or something like that and seemed to Always be tinkering or repairing it. On one occasion I asked him
how his car was doing. He responded “Well…yesterday was encouraging….”

LB: Did your Jag and MGB have the infamous Lucas (Prince of Darkness) electrical systems installed??🤣🤣

Thanks Craig.

Yes, she is on her feet, Yay!

Still a couple things to do before installing the radio and doing the setups.

I'd like to add a white wash to the upper surfaces to simulate 'sun fade' like on the Corsair and add some grime here and there.

Need to shoot better pictures then, too.

Don't have a time frame for the first check flight, it's always a couple's event.

I'd build a flying field nearby if I had the space and money.

Ladies and Gentlemen, children of all ages,

I took all the build photos and made a PDF Document Picture file (78Mb).

It is too large to post and share here, but if anyone is interested, PM me your email and I'll send it.

Best, LB
