Somehow, all pics between 4/24 and 5/28 are missing .... this is 154 images judging from the gap images, IMG_6756 and IMG_6909... anyway ...
By today, I and sent off a new control stick to a guy in CA to get it bent. Vern Darley visited sometime in the last month and suggested I would 'really' like it better if the forward stick was bent so that my arm was not out reached when the plane is in straight and level.
Re-installed the stick controls and re-pinned the DSub connector. I left off the foam-like grip since I really don't like the feel. I intend to use a leather wrap instead.
