3000cc corvair ran great. Needs a rudder trim tab and that's about it! More details to follow...

I have been busy flying, working and just life in general. I'm in a Web-ex at work right now, so it sounds like a good time to finally upload some pics!

Congratulations, as Dale and others noted, great paint job and nice smooth cowling of that Corvair.
