Enjoyed the video! Definitely a 2-person job. Still not entirely sure how I managed to rig my wings alone.

Matthew doing bodywork on the wheel pants. We did a lot of that on the hovercraft duct. That investment paid off.

Huge bondo mess:
Ailerons, flaps, and wing attach bolts safetied. Everything is rigged. After dinner we are going to cleco on the forward floor and put the seat/interior back in.
Adam's boss gave him a motor from a rototiller.

Most of the airplane is dusty and the polish job is old. The tailcone bottom polish is excellent.
A Waiex selfie after we put the floors and seats on.
After the huge storms passed we pulled it out.
It was the biggest hit of the event. The 1967 Wheel Horse, that is.

Luscombe trial fit. I need another renter. The 182 was too big.
