The spars have been in the area for a couple of years. I moved them to the shop the other day. I know I need to wait but I was always under the impression that it was to avoid geographic...
That was my next question...
Since the warp is at it's max right around where the struts attach is there a concern for direction? Crown up or down?
Or am I worrying about this too much with...
I am getting ready to drill my spars and just realized one of my rear spars is warped (warped Up and Down not FWD/AFT). it seems very gradual from one end to the other. It is only about 1/4 inch off...

I wrote something about this man before. But here is an excerpt from a book his sister wrote.
Notice he says "Barely 20 Years Old" then later in the story it turns out he is the Captain. The...

WTF.....
I made Chili the other day... I have a post running here about my annual batch of Chili and then some one goes and has a CHILI COOK OFF that is "Outside Reasonable Commuting Distance" ...
I read fly the biggest piece back and now I think I need this one too.
Although I did read this in the comments section on amazon.....Makes it even more interesting...

I did not get it wet. I like the airplane overall. Being a bigger guy the scout is comfortable. It gets off plenty short and lands short enough for me.
I really like that book. I won't spoil it for you but you will like it. I tend to read these books more than once
What a trip! Thanks Bill for picking me up in Ohio. For those of you who don't know Bill is an excellent host and his favorite thing to do is try new foods, especially vegetables. The trip was...
Looks like I'm headed to Bill's

Hey - I put my copies between Ernie Gann & Antoine St Exupery......
Stop looking at his balls and notice that he also got it in the leg....
you fellas have fun!
