Empenage kit ordered!
Tanya faxed the order for the Empennage kit to Vans yesterday! I expect that it will be here by late next week. I also put in an order for the Vans practice kit to learn some of the basic construction methods, i.e. riveting. Hopefully that will reduce some of the stress of driving the first real rivet.
Plumbing of the copper pipe for the new air compressor continues. Yeah, sometimes I get a little carried away with theoretical details. I could probably go on about all the technical details of why it is a good idea to run some hard pipe for compressed air even when distances don’t require it, but I won’t, unless somebody is interested.
