Brief Description:  Starting the Emp in the RV class

After waiting a LONG time, started the emp build at the RV builder's class at Ron Alexander's private airpark near Griffan GA.. Jacob is the ring leader !! This is actually for a RV7. Middle of summer, and it was hot as h**l in the hanger... but the airplane scenery was nice, I think a stearman, waco and cub. This was a 6-day class, designed to teach the skills needed to complete the airframe. I got everything finished but the VS and trim tab in the 6 days. The HS just barely fit in the Rover basically touching both the front and back windows with just a little pladding, and ELs barely fit sandwiched between the front and rear seats on the floor.

Class started on a Sunday, a day earlier than normal, since there was a fly-in scheduled the following weekend at Peachstate.

That's Jacob in the 2nd picture overseeing my work.
