Doug Eves sent this photo of the Ol' girl in flight. Taken from the ground, this is a great shot. You can see he is "relaxing" in his office in the sky...

Left wing fabbed up.

I haven't posted in sometime. I have been working ont the left wing. I have all the skins drilled, except the tank skin. I have all the ribs riveted to the wing spars and the skeleton is mounted in the jig and plumbed. The pitot tube has been fitted and the plumbing is done. All of the small brackets and angles have been drilled. I am now starting to debur, dimple and prime the skins. I will have the leading edge skin riveted together today and mounted on the wing. Then I will start the drilling of the tank skins and fabrication of the tank ribs. It's no easy job building the tank. I am striving to get the left wing done around the end of Febuary. I have tons of pics to post!
