Today’s a terrible day to fly. Rough commute to work.

Junk the bungee cord and put a spring on there. Tension is always consistent and unaffected by the cold
No wingman today when the arctic wind blasts subsided, so headed north to find a spot to do some sort of skiplane overnight deal. North end Pemadumcook lake found a lakefront camp with a cook. Looks like a nice spot for a get together
minus 16 on front porch at 2 pm
On the way back, the greatest sport of all time pops up. Catching a coyote out in the middle of a frozen lake. They make a living getting deer out on the glare ice, where they can get them splayed out and then it's all over.
we havegood snow and slush so the deer can fight back pretty good for now This chap was half a mile from the woods. They are pretty smart when a plane is strafing them they usually ball up when you get close
he made it to the woods, but needs to change his soiled coyote pants no coyotes were harmed I need Steve E in back seat gunner
keep you posted on the SkiplanePalooza

My springs have worked very, very well. I hear that some people actually buy them at Home Depot in the garage door accessories department. But I wouldn't know anything about that.
What size garage door do you have?

http://www.centuryspring.com/extension-spring-635.html. According to Summit this spring was used on a Sport Cub I saw. No where near a 90 ib door spring. The #632 spring is a little stronger and 2" longer which would be better, IMO.
Next time bring the Mighty Black Spud Squadron Regulation Defense Weapon and have a go....

Good thing I didnt have it with me I might have used it on myself. Do you remember our ride last weekend in the Pemi? Same thing yesterday around Debsconeag mts. Got my tailend handed to me again. Someday the wind might stop blowing around here.
The worse part was my friend who runs the Whitehouse Landing gave me a righteous double chocolate brownie, corner piece even. I just got the mighty Carbon Cub trimmed up and headed for home when all hell broke loose and slammed my head off the skylight again. Brownie goes flying into the baggage somewhere in pieces. Pity. I put it back together and ate it later

As usual, day late and dollar short! So, bottom line I finally flew my cub today after 2 1/2 year rebuild project. Did a friendly fly by at Tom’s place.... hence forth I’ll post in the proper year!!
Yep, willyb still has my skis, so I’ll have to run down there and pick them up. Need to do a little more rigging first. Flying around today it sure looks like good ski conditions..
