In September


We finally built a binder. Sebastien's customers and potential customers have been making these for years at our open houses. I've wanted to make one for a long time. I actually planned to make a rudder too. Well, those plans have changed. It was terribly difficult to make the binder. I couldn't have done it without Calvin. The work that I actually did (drilling and riveting) was done very, very badly. I no longer comment when I see poor workmanship on one of our customer-built airplanes. Now I know how hard it is!

My dance partner there is now three inches taller and fifteen pounds heavier than I am. He never dances with me though. He'd probably bowl with me if I offered to pay.
