Richard, Your photo shows your fuel tanks just above your battery/electronics box.
Is that right ? Perhaps it might be wise to consider some sort of cover over
the electronics such that if there was a leakage or spillage of fuel it doesn't
go directly down onto those items but is drained off safely somewhere else.
Just a thought. David.

Very nice, Richard. Perhaps you should dub this Firestar II Lazarus.

The Phoenix nose art was not very obvious in the pictures, but it's now a Firebird.

Nice post......."regulation for the sake of regulation" or " New World Order".
Aviation will surely become ever more elitist. :(

Something like cut the bottom off a plastic milk jug and drape over it? Sounds
good to me!

Thanks Rick (Neilsen). Great stuff. I looked up the tool and it is impressive.
Richard Pike: Are these recent photos on your web site?
I appreciate all the help.

I think you guys are making a big deal out of this when it sounds to me like
a fella just wants more info. Maybe, like me, he wants to look at things
from more than one way. Maybe he wants a broader outlook, a variety of ways
to analyze things.
> I'm still looking for that static air.
He didn't say anything about static air. He can make use of mpg info without
static air. Give him a break!

Won't need one. By the time FSDO gets around to inspecting it, it will be warm
again. :P
