Brief Description:  Flight 67

0.4 flight time. 1x around pattern. Did leak check run - low oil pressure. May be the new filter, new cooler, or both. Got gas. 3 1/2 gallons indicated, added 11.75 for 15 1/4 total. Might be able to get another quart in there, but it's not the 16 1/2 that others have reported. Came back, put the cowling on. Slight rain prior to takeoff. Long time for 1 pattern - was #2 for takeoff behind a guy doing a slow runup. He decided to wait for another guy to do a very slow T & G. I took off before another guy came in, so there were 4 in the pattern. Another LSA joined in, and Tim in his RV entered midfield downwind for 6 in the pattern. 2 more were calling inbound - at 0645! So I just did one time around and the base leg was much farther out than I wanted (for spacing). Need to trim forwards bottom flange on the cooler more, but otherwise no leaks in the stuff I built. Now the cam cover and the plug below the oil pressure sender are getting a little weepy.
