Thanks so much for the heads up on the binding of the rod ends. My rudder was stiff because the nylon block wasnt exactly 90 degrees, had to bend the thick aluminum piece that holds the nylon block on and no more binding, also the steel bungee is in now. Your plane is looking great, hope you are on all kinds of back country adventures.  I wish I could make a video like my student did, kids now a days are amazing.  He arranged a field trip to Virgin Galatic at Mojave spaceport and SpaceX in Hawthorne was fantastic.  He is President of Glendale College Space and Aviation Club and just got Rod Machado to speak at a meeting and got his pilot license at 17 before his drivers license. Amazing kid.

Hi Tim,

My name is Jeff Roberts and it seems your flying buddy owne's the Europa I built. ;-). He gave me your contact. Id like to ask you about the corvair mother you took out and why you went to the 912? Also how satisfied you are with it. I'm now building a Cruzer and am starting to think about Power. 

Thanks,

Jeff Roberts

Hi Timothy,

You have got a really good looking plane, nice paint job.
