I will take lotsa pics and I plan to be done with the elevators soon. The Christmas vacation is coming up and once we are out on Dec. 22 we aren't due back until Jan. 3! I will do lots of building then along with some visiting of friends and relatives.

My wings ought to come the following week! Perfect timing!

What a great christmas pressie. Isn't it great that we can still get that feeling you had when you where a kid. Whats in that big box under the tree. I can't wait til tomorrow.



If it is fun and makes you happy. Keep on doing it. Happiness is the youth potion of life. If you stay happy, you stay young and live for ever.
I for one plan on living forever. So far so good. :)

Update:

Wings are in transit now. They shipped out this past Monday the 20th and are coming here via ABF Truck Freight. ABF plans on arriving on 12/30/04. I need to schedule a time with them to receive the order when they get close!

I am taking my time with the left elevator in the meanwhile. A screwup now would really tick me off! I drilled the stiffies and am deburring and dimpling as I type this. Trim tab is started too. Good timing!
