    Hi Bob,

    My name is Norman Lambert. Remember me ? You came to visit a long time ago.

    I was building behind my house in Laval.

    I can see that you finished up your 701. Good for you !
    As for me, I just finally started the engine last monday !
    I currently fly a Cherokee 160 so i was in no rush to finish.
    The bug hit me ! So I'm back at it.

    Congrats on your 701, it looks MARVELOUS!

    Hi Robert,
    your 701 looks really good ! Are you using the subaru -psru you said you would ?
    Let me know the details.

    Mine has the subaru psru that you saw last time. Twin ignitions, nice stainless muffler and carburator.

    What are you using ? What's your empty weight ? Keep me posted.

    For the time being, I own a share on a Cherokee 160 but hope to switch to the 701 soon.

    Regards,

    Norm

    As far as paperwork goes, what is involved there...I'm getting there too.
    I really would like to know.

    Thanks for the info.
