Subject:  oil dipstick 
      
      I'm a dipstick!  A friend that looked over my engine years ago before
      first flight recommended making some sort of keeper for the dipstick.  I
      never did.  The other day, I took a couple laps around the racetrack and
      smelt oil.  Landed and saw oil running down the side.  The dipstick came
      out and made a mess.  After checking, I realized that it was a lot
      easier to pull out than it used to be.  After two hours of cleaning, I
      made a lanyard for it.
      
      Just a heads up if anyone is flying without a retainer for it.  Make one
      now!
      
      Stratus for sale!  I'm buying a 140 HP AutoFlight EA-82.
      
      In the mean time, I'm ordering an Airmaster and will try running it on
      the Stratus drive.  Any comments?
