I am HOME!!! Well, at my normal place of abode rather than the place that I seem to spend a lot of my time… I am home from a LONG weekend working on the plane, and I am EXHAUSTED! Four days in a row is too long. About 4pm today it was so bad that I was told to go and get a coke for the sheer caffene! I could have had a short sleep without issue I can tell you.

Not that I have been getting not enough sleep… It is more that working on the plane is work, and it is surprisingly hard work. The modus operandi seems to be that we work as a team, with one person doing the work, and the other being an assistant, getting tools, parts, etc. Also making up pieces when needed… Things work surprisingly effectively that way.

Today we got sick of working on the canopy and decided to work on the rear of the plane. This entailed lowering the plane, and then leveling it before adding adding the horizontal stabalizer. This is now attached to the plane, and makes the entire device look really really serious! I will have to get a photo since it looks great…
