Late arrival again.

UPS delivered on time today and the USPS delivered a few hours later, 4 days late, again. The tracking showed that the boxes took a long time to get out of Baton Rouge then back and out again. Anyway all boxes arrived today. There was some breakage in the box in a box. The do it yourself spray paint can glass cup was broken and the outside box took a severe beating. The layers of tape held it together. The UPS box had barely a scratch. I ran out of fuel at the worst place with the P-39 yesterday. At the top of the circle at the end of the clover maneuver. i ran and got control at 3 feet and saved a complete wreck but the fuselage was broken just behind the wing. Some carpenters glue, clamps and other reinforcement later I flew it this morning and it flew well. Then I painted the repaired areas. Good weather so far.
