My Contractor and a bunch of his workers were here all day today so I didn't get a chance to take the airplane to the field.
Probably tomorrow.
Thanks for all the kind words Guys. They are very much appreciated.
Steve I will heed your words of wisdom and go easy with the trimming process. I'm usually pretty good at trimming and always have the help of Mr. Bob Whitely to fall back on also. Bob seem to have a sixth sense for knowing the right thing to do, if and when problems appear.
I know the CG is a bit far forward now and I will probably have to add a little tail weight but decided to simply wait till it's flown to determine how much. It's and Old School Airplane with relatively small tail feathers so the CG may need to be a bit farther forward than everything I've flown for a long time!
Bench trimming showed it to be pretty good (except for the CG) so we'll see. No shortage of power I think with the RO Jett 61, which to date has only been bench run for about 1/2 Gallon of fuel.
