After a little hiatus, I'm back to building. I finally got my private pilot ticket Tusday 11/18/2008, after my second try.
Now that I'm sure I could fly it, I redoubled my efforts in building.
The rudder is nearing completion. I have all the mating surfaces primed and I have it cleco'd together waiting for me to put in my rivets. I'll start that tonight.
It has proven a challenge, I had to go out and get a respirator. Between the Zinc oxide and the Laquer thinner I won't have any lungs if I don't be proactive now.
