G'day Malcom,

You will be delighted to know that it is a much better aeroplane than it was before the upgrade. The nose wheel configuration is a little strange for me just at the moment but the feel of the plane is much more solid. The temperatures were perfect Oil Temp 180 F. and water temp about 90 C. It is flying port wing heavy so need some adjustment there. So over all, I think the upgrade is well worth the effort and I'm sure you won't be disappointed when your time comes to take your beautiful bird up in the air!!!!! In fact I must say I can't speak more highly of the Zodiac. It is everything I ever imagined it to be 6 years ago when I first bought the kit.

G'day Rick

I have been liaising with you via email about your tail wheel stuff. Well I have picked up my kit from Allan in Bendigo and have now joined this site. It looks like you're just about done, fantastic.

Cheers
