Thirty minute flight was flawless and Ted Davis gave the airplane the thumbs up approval! Takeoff speed is 60 mph, stall is 30-35 mph and cruise is 70 to 75 mph. Overall weight is 619 pounds with oil and water. Model A engine started first flip and idled at 540 rpm. Full throttle is around 2100 rpm. I will attach a photo of Ted taking off on the East-West runway at Brodhead.

It took me 2 months. I believe he did it as a hobby and built 2 ribs a day. He was making ribs in the woodworking tent at the time. I'm glad I got to meet him. I'm glad I built my own ribs, and would do so again, but agree that $300 was a bargain.

It's anything you want, or nothing. I always try to contribute $25 or $30 annually because I get a great deal out of this list. I figure at $26 annually, I'm paying fifty cents a week to enjoy everything that I hear and learn on this list. Fifty cents a week! Seven cents a day! The posts are screened for viruses, archived in a really nifty searchable database, available in instant postings or in a daily digest, and are supported by a very high-tech server that *somebody* has to maintain and keep updated. I'm probably low-balling the list admin by not contributing $50 or more, but I think there's a mental break point somewhere around $25 or $30 that people are willing to pay for an annual subscription. That's my take on it, anyhow.
