Thanks for the compliments! I guess that if you spend 7 months working the finish something good should come out of it  :D 

As far as speed not sure if it’s faster. When I get the speed fairings back in I will do some checks to see. And for weight, I very much doubt it’s still under 800. It’s true what they say that as it gets older it gets fatter :) I have added quite a bit of junk in it since that first flight. I’ll let you know as soon as I find a set of scales to redo the W&B. My estimate is that now I am in the low 800s. We’ll see. 

I choose to make the wing root fairings removable because I never quite liked the idea of not being able to see things such as the aileron QDs, wires, hoses, etc when the wings were on particularly as the airplane gets older. Matter of preference I guess. I worked on them this week and now fit nice. I can finally paint them. 

BTW, one thing I did during the painting process is the cockpit widening mod. I’m happy I did. Feeling the door sill on my arm always bugged me and now I don’t. Improvement. 

Chris
