OH-Well, I'll try and fix it. Darrll, what are you building or flying?

You may have gotten it fixed Steve because I didn't get the extra msg this
time.  Let's see how it goes.
Currently I'm flying a 1970 vintage Fly Baby (just got back from a short
cross country).  It's in pretty good shape structurally, but needs new
fabric on the wings which is a project for next winter.  It has the typical
J3 firewall forward, 800X4 tires and crappy brakes.  But it flies pretty
well.  This is my first low-wing and it's taking some getting used to on
landing, especially x-winds.  I just sold a Kitfox that I finished in July
95 and put nearly 400 hours on.  Currently I'm in the final completion stage
of a Kitfox Outback with NSI Soob and CAP (electric prop).  Working on the
panel, then wire it up and signoff-fly in the spring.   I'm gonna name it
"Miss Moneypit".
I'm also the co-administrator of the Kitfox List of about 330 members.  If
anybody's interested in joining let me know and I'll sign you up.
Have a great day,
Darrel
