This afternoon, I put the call out for all available hands in the neighborhood to help me p ut the wing back on. I got ten people to help me, and it was a piece of cak e after a little fudging and persuading. Got all the bolts back in like the y should be and the wing and struts back in place. Boy is it ever a good fe eling to stand back and look at something that actually looks like an airpl ane. Tomorrow I am on to re-installing all the brace cables, ailerons, aile ron control cables, fuel tank, fuel lines, access panels, etc. With any luc k I want to taxi on Monday.

Getting it ready for the annual condition inspection. As Ryan M. says, there are pics on Westcoastpiet.com showing what N30PP looks like - it still looks the same. It was flown up from Florida to Iowa last October (14+ hour flight), parked in a dirt floor hanger, and never touched afterwards. It was seriously filthy with about 10 lbs of dead bugs and dirt on it. After cleanup (6 hours later) in my hanger, it's looking much better. It has a couple of things that need to be take care of (new tire, a fuel line and maybe bungee's), but outside of that, will fly as is till winter when I can address some cosmetic issues. I do intend to get it to Broadhead, but I don't know if it will be this year. It will make it to Blakesburg though. Last year my brother and I drove up to Broadhead for the very first visit, met a bunch of you (Mike C, Greg Cardinal, and some others I can't remember). I'd volunteered to haul equipment in my enclosed trailer, but it was not needed. It was a great first visit and will be repeated! This flight was also the first time ever that I flew a plane that belonged to me, and that I didn't have to write a check to the FBO for $100+ after an hour of relaxation. Cheers!
