Re: Flying - Speed Up, Slow down!
Thanks Richard, and everyone. Yes, no outside video but I run audio capture all the time taking off or landing. Sometimes it's amusing!

Re: Option for lifting wing
Seems like a great idea, Corbin I don' t see any issues. Looks like it spreads the load very nicely.

Re: New hangar for tandem wing

Only visited the 47th State..most corners of it but not long term.
Taos County..not as many bad things but still a very good idea to watch every step. Had a smaller herd of maybe 25 or so Elk cows
