Well my good friend Dick Gossen put his RV12/Viking in the air yesterday, see him in photo 1! That is important to me, we have been building together for some time now, and if he is done then I must be close as well! My son leaves me tomorrow to go back home, but the progress we have made will propel me ahead nicely. We got all the things done that I needed help on, either mentally or just another hand! Got to close up the fuselage wing connection holes today, and then dabbled with the new canopy lock I had acquired. Warm fuzzy feelings for all we have accomplished, on the plane and otherwise! Thanks again Mike.
