    Thanks for the input, as always. Don, per your reccomendation, I've used one shot for my large N numbers and it is great stuff! Shot the final colored dope coat yesterday on the fuselage (wings already done) and started the stripe, very exciting. Today I start on the "logo" on the side which will be rewarding as it will really start to look like my dreams. Kinda fun to get sidetracked on cosmetic stuff and take a break from fabricating hundreds of tidbits. After this, more tid bits for a while, then sheet metal. I can see the finish line!! Douwe

    Guess I post a similar messege every year. I have'nt run my A-65 since Oct. Few weeks ago I inspected it, and left it at that. Today they were calling for gusty winds of 11mph and up. But sitting at the deli, I looked up and saw nothing. Decided to go. Pulled out my Piet and ,,,,,,,2 shots of primer, mags off, pulled thru 6 blades, left mag on, flipped it ,,,and it was running.,,,,running! 1940's technoligy that won't let you down. Did 3 TO&L's to a full stop at three different airports. Had to do a go-around cause of the stinking geese on the runway at Aeroflex. Looked at the winding stream thru the valley, Looked at the Ostrich farm, Looked at the rock formation on the mountain behind my house, Had to clear the trees at Trinca, had to slip to the left really hard to mis them . Ain't Life Grand! was thinking of selling my Piet this year,,,,but I guess I'll keep it. walt evans NX140DL
