Sorry to hear about the Tri-Pacer, Charlie. That is disappointing when you have to get into the engine for repairs. Glad it didn’t give up on you in flight. How was the progress on the D-fly this

Jay, I may have already been outed. No tandem wing flying for me but I have been trading glass for air. I did a Cherokee nose bowl repair. Replaced the factory crappy sandwich stiffeners. He has taken

Sounds like the way to go, John. I would take Charlie’s advice. For those who don’t know Charlie is One Sky Dog. I hope I haven’t blown your “witness protection program” cover, Charlie!

Great videos Jay. Most often I read Q-List email on my phone and intend to watch on my big screen later. With 40-50 emails per day, out of sight, out of mind. But this time I starred your email so I
