Your too kind!!!

It was great a great day.I departed from home at 4:45 AM looking at the stars and (almost) full moon, it was beautiful. I watched the sun come up, perfectly smooth air, and a 20 knot tailwind! I returned home at 1500 ft counting the corn stalks!!  I put almost 8 hours on the plane that day. 

It was great to talk with a bunch of really nice people. 

The aluminum is as it came from Zenith. I only hand waxed/polished it with Honda "Glare" polish that my son had at his Honda powersports dealership. I use the Honda Glare wash thinned with water in a spray bottle to remove the bugs from the leading edges.

Take Care!

I did not meet you there, but several of us looking at it were wondering how you finished the aluminum to get that look. Thanks.

Rick, Thanks for bringing your plane to the open house for folks to look at. What a great job! I took lots of pics of it,

You had some really clever things done. It's an inspiration
