More messing around
When I got down to the hangar this afternoon, a cherry RV was rolling down the runway. It turned toward my hangar and I saw it was Chris stopping by to inspire me with his beautiful RV-6. Like I need more inspiration. I’m dying to get flying. When he took off, his wheels left the ground well within 1000′ feet. He cruised about 6′ off the runway for a few thousand feet, started a gentle climb with wing rock right in front of me, and then shot right up to 1000′ AGL. Very cool.
Back to messing around the plane, I cut the rubber strips for the wing root fairings, and also cut the rubber strips for the strips under the horizontal stabilizer. I also remembered that I had some rubber trim for the forehead-cutter edge of the glare shield.
I then checked all the settings on the EFIS and EMS and decided to turn off the AOA display since it isn’t calibrated yet.
Looks like the weather might cooperate tomorrow. Fingers are crossed.
