so much free time... wasted :(

Post by tmbg »

I've been sick for 4 days straight. I've had to take time off work, and I'm stuck in the house with nothing to do, and I don't have the strength or presence of mind to work on the plane :(

I'm going stir crazy!

Yeah, that really bites. When I was sick I tried reading section five of the manual again and looking at drawings, might not have been getting anything physical done, but at least I was exposed to the info. Read for a few minutes, then put it down, rest an hour, read for five minutes, repeat. I actually read quite a bit over a few days.

Another good thing to do is buy the 24 years of the RVator. I JUST placed my order for it a few minutes ago, so it's fresh in my mind. Great reading that I should've bought when I started the airplane... :roll: $30 for 24 years of info! Can't beat it! :thumbsup:

Yup, really good idea Chad. I have only read a small part of mine, I'm using it as yet another reference, after rivetbangers of course.
