Ron,
I just got through reading your Kitlog entries back to October of last
year. You have made incredible progress in such a short period of time.
Your work is really exceptional.
Congratulations on this major milestone. First flight can't be far behind!

Ron,
I have been following your progress for several years now and I really admire your
dedication in scratch building a 601XL. I caution all impending 601XL pilots
to be aware of the pitch characteristics, especially during take-off and landing.
Since it looks like you will be flying in another 601, please spend as
much time doing touch and go's as you think you will need plus a few extra.
Good luck!
