Here's what I did this week: Friday I pulled and cleaned all the sparkplugs then went out for .6 hr flight. Saturday, I flew over to a nearby airport that I had not visited previously and logged another 1.0 hr. flight. Sunday I dawn patrolled to the edge of the 50 NMi earth and landed at another airport that I had never visited before. Logged1.9 hrs. Altogether a good weekend of flying.

From: Larry Winger Jay, I'm truly sorry to hear this news. Your stake in the 601XL has never been in question with me. Thank you for your contributions to this list. Your help in sending me photos of your gear installation made a great difference in my confidence when building that section. I hope things improve so you can return to the skies soon.
