    Default N37TP It's getting there?????????

    I pulled the Speedster project out to get some current pics for the build log. As you can see there's lots of loose ends all over the place. I stopped the paint/stripe process because I wasn't particularly pleased with the outcome. I still haven't settled on a paint scheme.
    Here's a brief milestone report.
    FWB 100%
    FWF 95%, next task is test run the engine, 80hp rotax
    Paint and stripe 75%
    Bubble doors 100%
    My plan is to put this through the Airworthiness inspection as soon as possible and continue to add accessories such as radio/transponder during the flyoff period. This is my first attempt at building a whole airplane and it seems that this has exceeded my attention span by at least 250 hours.
    At this time my build log shows around 850 hours and I'm under $20K but not by much.

    Looks very nice Thomas. You are very close now.
    Good luck with the first engine run. The 80 hp. is a sweet little engine.
