Sorry everyone. I have been on holiday for the past few weeks. Went down to the Cape for some sun and wine - got rain and wine instead, but am back in the swing of things. I actually planned to get some building done tonight but alas, no power - thanks Eskom. Will send some updates tomorrow night! Good to see someone is following my ramblings.

I've seen Conrads plane and must say that he is building very neatly. It looks like an awesome aerie- want one! :roll: I will just have to fly with Conrad and change my call sign to co pilot. Seriously though they really are great aeries and I have booked my flight with Phil when he finally completes his.

Finished riveting the underside of the co-pilot wing tonight (about 500 rivets or so). Now to turn it over and finish it! I have taken photos but have to figure out how to get them onto my iPad and posted. ($$) ($$)
