REFLECTOR: What are you working on?

[nmflyer1 at aol.com]

Mark, 

That is one of the many "life things" that dramatically slows down progress (but it doesn't have to stop it). 

My progress was moving along rapidly, then:

I moved to an airpark. Moving sure slows things down!

Got married, 2 step-kids, added one more or our own. Slowed things down.

Became manager of the airport... Slowed things down. 

FAA can't staff for beans.. working 6-days a week.... Slowed things down..

Decided to design & build my own engine for this beast. REALLY slowed things down....

Murphy does not seem to care if you are building an airplane....each step kid totaled a car. Had to fix them. Home things break, Cottonwood trees attack, dog eats the watering system... Slows things down. 

Except for "Murphy's Law"... the rest are all positives.. and they do slow things down.. but come with their own rewards. 

Then, when you get back to building.. it feels Really Good :)

My son was selected to All Star baseball team...
Thought baseball was over for fam, now traveling to tournaments -every weekend-...
Yeah Team?! :)    :(
Can a Velocity that is flying be finished with 3 kids still in the nest?
I begin to worry.

The Reflector has been quiet this week. Hopefully that means that everyone is busy flying or building.
 
I'd love to hear what the Velocity community is working on. If your bird is in the air tell us where you're flying.
 
I've been spending my time on the wings; aileron torque tubes, wiring for nav/pos/strobe lights, and final fitting of the rudders. I'm trying to complete all the wing tasks that can be done without them attached to the fuselage.
