I've put in over 120hrs, at 100mph that's about 12000 miles. In theory anyway.

Guy, if your friend has the inspector lined up he should ask if photos of the three
views will be okay. Thats what mine wanted.
Also, I have a Skystar catalog from 1999 that has three view drawings in the back.
The model fives they show are the Voyager (tri gear smooth cowl) and the
outback (tail wheel tube gear, smooth cowl). if one of those is what he needs
I can snail mail a copy.

Theories are fine, Mike, but I've got the motel and fuel receipts,
and the GPS data to back mine up. : ) (No "one-upmanship"
intended...just havin' fun)
Incidentally, when I got to looking at the track of my trip, I found
that the GPS had overwritten the first part of the trip, and it
showed "in theory" that I had started out from somewhere in Arizona,
near the San Simon VOR, and that each day I fly now, more and more of
the trip track will be eaten up...unless I save the track,....which I
just did. Damn, now I'm gonna have to re-fly the first couple of
thousand miles. : ) Hey Jimmie, can I stay at your place again?
Another GPS fact that I just discovered....when the "flights" log
gets full, it starts to overwrite the earliest ones. When I went to
update my pilot's logbook, the first day of flying on this trip was
gone. Fortunately, I had written those figures down, as well as all
the rest of the trip, so it will be easy to transfer those figures to
my logbook...wouldn't want the 'net/FAA cops to bust me on that one.

| Subject: | Importation from Canada |
Has anyone ever bought aircraft parts (for personal use) in Canada and brough them
back into the states? How complicated is this? Is there an on-line resource
you can recommend? I'm looking at some full lotus floats and thinking that the
low price might be more than offset by the hassle of getting them through customs
at the border.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Well, I've gotten side-tracked a bit with other things, but I have
made some progress on the panel. The fuselage was stripped for
powder coating and is waiting for me to re-install the floor boards
and flight controls, and the wings need a little work but are almost
ready for covering. I'm hoping to have the fuselage covered by fall.
Hmmm, you're making me think I need to get myself in gear! :-)

I can understand that. But if you change your mind, if the weather cooperates,
you fly right over the highway all the way there.

I use the IQ3600a and find it works rather well, not sure on the, getting full
thing. I did find that if I did a stop I needed to shut down the gps, collaps
the entenna, and it will pick up where I stopped. As far as the Faa, well, what
they don't know won't hurt them. In fact, the best thing to do with those
folks is to be, out of side out of mind, if you know what I mean.
