(Paul Mulwitz) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 06:15:25 AM PST US Subject: Zenith-List: Back in the Air! From: "Sabrina" Hey Guys! The Sabrina Mark 1 took to the air again in calm skies above Sugar Grove, Illinois this morning! This was its first flight since SAIB CE-10-08 was issued. Although I addressed each issue raised by the FAA in my own way, I am pleased with the results so far. As anticipated, placing 15 feet of 1 inch round tubing into the air stream slowed the airplane by 15 knots in level flight at 2450 RPMs as compared to last year's numbers. I could use some suggestions on which NACA number and materials to use for my strut fairings. Please and thank you, Sabrina P.S. Update: I was recently awarded the IATA Industry Achievement Award and a CABAA scholarship to MIT. That, combined with other scholarship money and incentives, has reduced my cost of attending MIT this year to a $996 unsubsidized Stafford Loan. This would never have happened without this list's help over the years. Thank you all so much! I will move my Cessna 150L to Hanscom AFB next month as soon as my fingerprints clear and I pass my DPE practical. (98% on the writtenHow do you know which runway you are on? The big white number at the end is the wrong answer for some reason.)

Congratulations Sabrina. I didn't understand all those alphabet soup names, but it all sounds good. I wish you the best of luck at MIT. It is a very hard school and I hope you can roll with the punches.
