      Dear Listers,
      
      There are just a few days left for this year's List Fund Raiser.  If you've been
      putting off making a Contribution until the last minute, well, this is it! 
      The last minute, that is... :-)  There are some GREAT new gift selections to choose
      from this year.  I personally want at least three of them!  There's probably
      something you can't live without too!  And, best of all it supports your
      Lists!
      
      Please remember that there isn't any sort of commercial advertising on the Lists
      and the *only* means of keeping these Lists running is through your Contributions
      during this Fund Raiser.  Let's make this a "Black Friday" for the Lists!
      
      Please make a Contribution today!

      Is anyone flying with the van der Voort designed shock absorber design for
      the maing gear. It looks like a good replacement for the BHP shock cord design.
      One concern that I have though is the clearance between the 1" OD tube and 3/4"
      OD tube. There is about .060" clearance between the tubes. Seems a little excessive.
      Anyone with experience with this?

      Here is another option. This is what I have on my Piet project.

      If you are interested, I can send you the link where I purchased my die springs.
      $40.00 or so each, as I recall. Much less than Wag Aero or Wicks or ACS.

      		Hi Guys,
      I have just built one for my Wagabond Project. 
      Simple to build and looks good and strong.

      I did this and really liked the looks. I have yet to finish my plane.
      
      BTW right now my concentration is on getting my commercial ticket next
      Wednesday.
