Got to take my first flight in the RV-4 after a two month annual. Wasn't that much work involved but a lot of life happened this winter. New plugs, new battery, non-leaking fuel tank. She flew well an I made a darn good landing. This makes annual #5 for this RV-4. Maintenance items of note were:
Leaky fuel sender gasket, left tank
Cracked lower cylinder baffle under #4 cylinder
Engine compression is 76-74-74-74
And no other major squawks found.
Nice plane, wish I could keep her.
