Now that you say that, it does look sort of like a Murphy Renegade.

Re: Re building EAA Biplane.
Boet hoekom die regter vlerk gebruik as die "trap" en nie links nie, of is dit nou soos die ingelsman en die perd op klimmery?

Re: Re building EAA Biplane.
Thanks Vernon. Yesterday and today it is misrable wet and VERY cold. Not ideal weather to be doping wings in. I finished doping the nitrate coats on Monday and Tuesday. Today we are fitting the brakes to the wheels. A bit of a puzzle job really. The loose parts are getting less and less. We are neeearly there now with this aerie!
Fly safe and have an enjoyable weekend with your families.

Re: Re building EAA Biplane.
My Currie Wot was ook so n verkeerdom Ingelsman errie. Jy het ook op die regterkant ingeklim. Daarom het ek n "NO STEP" sign op die linkerkant gesit..... en toe TRAP een bliksem daar. Fabric n gat in!!
My moermeter in die rooi
, sit ek toe n groter sign op: NO STEP PLEASE!!..........
en toe stap iemand n wing rib se stert heel in sy moer in af.
Die k@k het einde gekry na my volgende NOG groter sign: NO F`ING STEP PLEASE. Daarna het niemand weer op die vlerk getrap nie!!




Re: Re building EAA Biplane.
Meanwhile back at the ranch....... all this cold and rain and "misrable doping weather" gave us some welcome rain. The flowers started blooming. This afternoon we had about 4 hours of sunshine, enough time to take a couple of pictures of this wonder.

Re: Re building EAA Biplane.
Today, we saw no sunshine, very cold and drizzling for most of the day. But we are thankful for rain here. The flower season will probably be a bit longer this year!!
Re: Re building EAA Biplane.
Boet lyk my jys 'n fotografer van formaat. En ek dog die enigste kultuur wat julle daar het kom in die bottel.
Wys jou hoe min ek weet.
Na die winter gaan ons kakiebos so welig staan soos jou se blommetjies
