REFLECTOR: Windshield

[Terry Miles]

Scott,
I just have one distortion, but it is pretty well above the level flight
horizon line (best I can guess at this point) and I am hoping it won't
bug me too much.

Here's a shot of the Piaggio.  Eat your heart out.  She is a beauty to
behold.  He said payback was a ride in the Velo once Malcolm and I have
it flying--but only after a it's rung out, he said.  Spoken like a test
pilot.

Terry,

Great job on the ailerons!.

My windshield has some distortion, that can be irritating. I wish there 
was a way to fix it.

That Piaggio is one great looking airplane!    I've managed to seen a 
couple up close, outside that is.  I'd love to get a ride in one.
