I was curious where Ken went, so I used gcmap.com to plot his route. Looks like
a nice flight!

Thanks for the reply Bud.
I used to have a borrowed engine hoist that worked well but the airplane was lighter
then. Per your feedback I see it is not a problem even with a completed
airplane.
One question: the cold air plenum gets in the way of the inner portion of the engine
mount which is where I used to hoist from. I need to look at it but I think
the only part accessible now is the Rotax ring mount. Should I use this (limited
strapping points) or should I take the plenum out?

Will,
We replaced the original factory door seals with ones from McMaster Carr. Here is a link to the page: https://www.mcmaster.com/catalog/128/3850
The one we use is PN 12335A44.
Our doors fit perfectly when we built the plane until we installed the factor door
seal. Then they bowed. We were told to just let the doors be exposed to
outdoor heat and that would correct the bowing. It never did. The above seal
is better, but the rear of the doors still bow out some. But they don't leak
rain and they are flush at the front. They haven't changed in years.
