Prop order confirmed
I received a letter from Vans confirming my propeller order from Hartzell. They’re going to ship direct. The expected ship date is May 10, 2006!! I know they said to expect a 12 week lead time, but holy cow. I hope it gets here before that. I’d like to confirm the fit of the cowl before then. Assuming shipping takes a week or two, I might not see it until the end of May.
This just confirms that I need to order the rest of what I need for the plane. I was trying to pace out the purchases and buy things only as I need them. But I don’t want manufacturing delays to hold up my project. I’m going to confirm my avionics choices at the aviation trade show in Puyallup next Saturday, and then it’s time to do some major ordering.
