Thanks for shearing your video.

Hi Robert,
I had to shovel off one foot of snow twice this year already... Not fun.
And me too, i saw paint chips with the snow ... Not fun.
At least now, I can take the snow off the covers without touching the wing skins. I think it is a good investment.
Also found a Snow Broom... Has a telescopic handle and the broom part is mad of tough foam... Less damage to the paint.

Hi Robert.  Would like to contact you with a few questions.

Hi Robert,

 

Love your aircraft, hopefully you get it flying soon, you're going to love it. I had Brad d'Entremont from West Pubnico, NS come down and check me out on floats, he's been flying a 701 for 10-15 years, lots of time, I just forget exactly how much? Anyways, he's a super good guy and a real pleasure to fly with, if any way possible to arrange some time, you won't regret it.

I won't give out contact information but if you're interested and he's intersted then I can have him call you.

I haven't posted any photos of my aircraft yet, provide an e-mail address and I'll send photos.

Robert
Thanks for the idea on removing plastic.. I bought these parts that had been made a few years ago dn it was tough, I heated and picked and dug and It was hard.. I found out that I could have bought the side/top skins for about the same as I made them.. plus they would have been predrilled.
I wish you good success in your building too

Yeah changing stuff around is common sense in a lot of cases(certainly not all)...no engineering involved. I look at it and say "I couldn't tear that up with a ball peen hammer". Vibration does strange things tho, right?

 

Best
