The blizzard.

During the storm a few days ago I got into the building season mood and started making a kit of the plans I had enlarged the day before. So far the kit is looking like a plane. I got the wing about 1/3 built with the molded leading edges drying and the fuselage sides starting to go together. The stab/elev are cut out and hinged as well as the flaps/wing trailing edge. Fin/rudder are cut out and set per the plans. I made doublers like the Legacy with 1/64 ply going past the trailing edge of the wing cutout and 1/32 ply from the nose to the wing spar. The rest of the construction is similar to the Legacy.
  The rain has swollen the river for opening day of fishing season again. All that remains is for temps in the 20's for Sat. morning.
