Annual completed - Wooden Prop care and feeding

I keep my plane outside and was worried about my wooden prop and the weather here in Western Washington.  Sensenich is able to completely refinish and rebalance their wooden prop for $200 plus about $35 for shipping and handling.  The prop looks brand new, and is a lovely golden brown.  It took 3 weeks turn around time and well worth the money.

RE: N4882 flying again

I had 19.8 hrs on it. I talked with the Seattle FSDO and they said because I had not yet completed my 1st 40 hrs, they would not need to add additional testing time. I worked about 20 hrs per week for 4 months, but I did all the work alone. Keep plugging along!

N4882 Flys Again!

I have completed two test flights, 0.5 hrs and 1.0 hrs, and it flys perfect, um, just like it did before the upgrade. Still adjusting the alerion trim to get it to fly hands off. Off to re-start my ASI calibrations. It's nice to be back in the air again!
