    Subject: Re: Need a right elevator
    From: Ernest Hale <ernest@flmitigation.com>
    Hey Miles, I might be interested in your empennage and wing kit, could you send pics and let me know what you might want for them. I have an imbalance in my wings due to having to replace one of them and I don't think it was jigged correctly. Thanks, Ernest From: Bowen Miles <cessna170bdriver@yahoo.com> Subject: Re: Rocket-List: Need a right elevator HI Eernest, I'm in Tehachapi, California, and have an empennage, and a partially complete wing kit for an HRII.
