After a breakfast run this morning with 5 airplanes and 7 folks from Brighton (including an RV-6A and my 170), I spent about 4 hours in the hangar cleaning up about 6 months of disorganization and saying "I'll get to that later". I even found several items that I forgot I owned, including a fire extinguisher, which I promptly mounted. I now have my workbench to the point that there's room for working on the stabilizer repair.
Just about the time I got the new stabilizer parts laid out on the freshly cleaned bench, neighbors noticed the open hangar door and started showing up, so the beer light went on. Of the three that showed up, two had also been cleaning up their own shops, and the third had been doing some long-delayed exterior maintenance on the airport clubhouse. I was glad to point each one of them to the fresh pint glasses on the kegerator... they had earned it!
No shop time logged today, as I have a 8-hour bottle to tool rule...
