    Larry,

    WW tells me the Nose Bowl I have is yours. I am duplicating it as a station buck so I can make one out of metal. As soon as I get er done I will be shipping you the plastic parts.

    Larry, I am wondering your continued take on the " wing thing". I also have stopped short of closing my left wing to see what transpires from NSTB, FAA and ZAC talks. Have you heard any new info through sources we discussed earlier? I also noticed on your site you do not have wing lockers and I have done everything but cut the hole in the wing skin to install them. Again waiting, but I do not remember seeing anything on reports if any downed planes had them. I am also anxious to visit Z.A. member Bennett Scheuer who attended Sun and Fun and may have heard ZAC presentation and attended builders barbeque because I saw his picture. I'll be interested to get his take on feelings he came away with. I met Bennett at rudder school in Missouri. Best to you. As always jerry in Neberaska.

    Larry, Cannot imagine how unobservant I am. Saw your posting of attendance at Sun and Fun also after hitting add comment. Jerry

    Hi Larry, It was great talking to Dave and Ken, especially having actually met so few Zodiac builders since I started the project. Here I finally find some close by, now that I'm at the end of my build. I have the DAR coming next week to look at the airworthiness. If that all goes okay, I'll be flying the following week. I'd be glad to have you come by and take a look and have a talk. Lemmie know what's good.

    Thanks, Brad. That helps me understand the differences I was seeing in various installations. BTW, the 650 plans still call for a dl of 70mm on the side covers, which is the same height as the 601. I guess guys are just adapting without the aid of guidance from the plans. Nothing new there, especially in this area of the project!

    Larry, I have not called in a long time. Am trying to fit canopy and am having some concerns with position of rollover tube and how it relates to canopy. Would appreciate tremendously chance to visit and get some measurements from you on how you set up tube and how canopy fit. Thank you in advance.
