    Sorry guys, but I kinda lost interest in airplanes, to say the least.

    Thanks Mike. I went and took a look, look's good to me for Li-Po's. I do need a Ni-Mh 9.6 transmitter battery, mine is a Hydrimax from Graves but they are out, go figure. I ran through my planes and everything was good so as soon as I get some batts I'll be back in the air. Everyone can still...

    Thanks guys. Slowly healing, it still hurts like it was last month which is better than like yesterday. The house/property is 99% done. Actually, I started looking over airplanes the past couple of days. Everything is good but need to replace all batteries as they have been in heat way to long...

    Ours has a house on it, needs to be gutted and redone (modernized) so we will be living in the RV until then. Going Monday to buy a bigger RV.

    Closed on our home Wednesday, closed on our new one today, sitting in the rv at a KOA, the new home needs remodeling before moving in. Trying to figure out which route to an end would be best, hard to do when can't think about any much other than the son. Only posting here because I can't talk...

    I can not report any progress on this plane or any plane. A couple days after this post we decide to move, had been pondering it for a while. Listed around the 22nd and signed the sales contract three days later, the next day we signed for our new house. And then our lives became hell on earth...

    Been way to windy to paint, started howling the day I went to the doc and has not let up. Really weird for this time of year. Add the fact they are cutting sod all around the area. Just not good for painting. If the wind would die down just a little I can put up a tent type booth.

    Thanks brother. Got all the hole's cut out this evening and ready for the poly brush step. Have to strip the cowl and pants of the old paint first though. Normally I would be saying what is up next and so on but with the way the past 1-1/2 to 2 years has been I'll just post what I get when I get...
