As I have completed the construction phase on this aircraft I will no longer be logging any hours but will continue to document activites related to its quest for the sky.
I taxied the airplane across the field to Triad Aviation, where we put it one th scales to weigh it. With scale readings in hand I calculated weight and balance and it all looks perfect! Total empty weight was 1086 lbs.
After returning to the hangar I drained the tanks and then called the gas truck over and filled both tanks to full, calibrating the fuel gagues as we went.
I hunng around until dark and did my best to align the landing and taxi lights.
