    --> Tailwind-List message posted by: "Jim Clement" <168x@merr.com> Thanks to all you congratulators on the first flight of 169WH. I will make a few adjustments today and get a better idea of the performance numbers. From what I can tell so far, they are about the same as the other O-320 taildraggers I've had. Jim C

    that is a terrific looking plane Jim! You and Donna don't look to bad either ; ) Lot's of rain here, probably be snow your way in a few days, so not much flying getting done. I am ready to go to Arizona and visit George! But, N168A is getting electronic ignition, new nose oil seal, and prop won't be done for a while yet.
