Looks like a nice flight!

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?

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.
