A project.

I flew the plane and it is better. I can stand to fly it now. There has been talk about the Legacy 40 on the forum lately. I had scratch built one several years ago and didn't like the way it flew. I tried several remidies and they didn't help. I looked at the nose and it looked long to me. I asked on the forum and found my planes nose is too long. I have a band saw and I took 3/4 of an inch off and while I was at it sanded the paint off and I'm in the process of refinishing it at the same time. I had lengthened the stab/elev. a while ago so I trimmed some off while it was sitting there. I won't need all the leverage with the shorter nose. I never have enough time to do the job right but I can always find time to do it over.
