Yes, thanks for that!
I wouldn't have gone without all my ducks lined up but I purposefully
took neither pilot or plane logs per the advice of others.

I got tired of pushing the door up to get it to open all the way, so I bought the
heavy duty ones from Van. It's been a little over a year, and they are beginning
to require a push to get them up, again....

Ok, got to chime in here.... some of you may already know this, but most do
n't... Got the idea of flying while on our catamaran at Staniel Cay.- We
became friends with a couple who flew in, and were basically, Island hoppin
g.- That sounded kind of neat, so from the Bahamas, I contacted an old fr
iend/tenant to find out some info.- He said he sold his RV6, and was buil
ding a 10.- I had no idea what either of those were.- Long story short,
boats is sold, and have over 630 hours on the 10.=0AWould love to hook up
with any of you headed over there the next time around.- We spent about 3
months there, visiting Bimini, Exumas, Nassau (just to pick up people from
the airport), Cat, Long, Eleuthera, Abacos, and headed back to the states
from Walker.- From Walker to Charleston took us 55 hours, averaging over
11 kts, with a top speed of 14.2.- Just guessing, but it should be a litt
le quicker in the 10. - =0A=0APic1 is my wife, her sister, and her niece.
=0APic2 is her niece having fun... if you scratch their bellys, they just f
all over.- Me in the dinghy=0A=0APic3 is our cats idea of a glass panel.
=0APic4 is one of our favorite cays... Compass Cay, just north of Staniel.

I noticed that the ML Blue Skunk Works has an electric version of the previously
manual rudder trim system. Anyone with experience in an RV10?

| Subject: | Winter Milestone |
After last year of seeing mediocre progress on my 10 build and seeing and hearing
the advancements others have made, it's a little ironic that I would see a
milestone (to me) during the coldest months of the year -around 0 degF --huddling
around the 100K btu portable heater. I've had my fuselage mounted on a low
rolling square tube frame bolted to the wing spar and supporting the tail for
the last two years working on interior things, overhead console, carbon fiber
panel, electrical stuff--keeping it low for as long as I could to make it easier
for access to inside things. Enough of that, I needed to see progress so
bring out the gear legs---drilled and mounted. Grease main bearings & mount
wheels--done. Install nose gear, grease bearing, mount nose wheel---done. Remove
parasitic square tubed frame--done. It's standing on its own now! Slide
over engine hoist, lift engine & bolt to engine mount--done. Break out baffle
kit & begin install-- now in progress...
All in the last two weeks---for me a milestone. Had to share

Well, you can't get too far on those baffles until you have the engine
cowling done so that you can accurately trim the baffles to the cowling.

Thanks for sharing. I hate it when I have guys stop by and say 'looks
the same as the last time I saw it'. Depressing! It's a lot of little
things that take up so much time and show so little progress.

| Subject: | Tim Olson latest post "My rv building prayer" |
I do not know Tim personally but have been on his website numerous times as I think
many of us have. He has created a huge resource for us as builders and someday
would like to thank him in person ....but... the real reason for this post
is I have read his latest post numerous times again and love the message he
has in it. I too, can relate to many things Tim expresses in this post and I
believe any builder struggling should read that post. There is so much to life
and Tim nails it on the head what really is important but yet has followed a
dream as many of us are. Thank you Tim, Andrea and your children.
