Pete, Thanks for the note. You're certainly into a new plane, now! As you (cautiously) gain experience, you'll begin to see why on windy days, the only GA planes flying are Coupes and heavy metal. Please remember that this is the plane which was killed in the market place by idiots saying that it couldn't be flown in winds or cross-winds.

The take off was better but the landing was great. Had a 20 knot crosswind and no problem. The tail now sits 78 inches off the ground, darn near need a rope to get onto the wing>grin<. The rudders are hooked up correctly but perhaps the rudder rigging is not quite right. Will check this weekend. I used pipe clamps, they were a great idea and two of us had the pucks and spacers changed in a couple of hours. Flew two hours and enjoyed every minute of it, I hope to do the rudder rigging this week end, weather permitting. Snow is not far off, right now the rain just wont quit. Thanks for all your help, I could not have come this far without you,Pete Pete :-):-):-):-):-) Have a great day!!! ====================== TO UNSUBSCRIBE go to: http://ercoupers.com/lists.htm
