What's wrong with your old Skis Lynn? Seems like I recall you just modified
them last winter with longer tips to jump snow piles. ;-)

Now Lowell, that you're all done engineering the elevator trim, how
'bout working on a rudder trim that can be slid under the skin of a
completed and painted plane, such that the installer doesn't have to weld
anything, and the subsequent "damage" to the fabric consists of
nothing more than maybe taping over a slit in the fabric...with orange tape
, of
course. If that sounds a little too selfish, I'd allow for any other color
tape to be used. (This will give you something to dream about while recover

from the intake of too much tryptophan in Kansas City tomorrow....Happy
Thanksgiving, everybody) And it will free up my time to work on my new skis

elevator would be over $200, that would pay for a lot of welding. My 2 cen
