Good news indeed. 695 pounds sounds great to me!
Congratulations Jim! Get someone to video that first flight. Also, if you would, please post weight and balance info when you get it. I'm very interested in what your empty weight is.
Gus,
I share your frustration over the difficulty of getting reliable engine weights. You would be doing a lot of us a huge service if you can start reporting accurate figures for "installed weights." It would be so nice to be able to make an "appl…
Beautiful job! What's your best guess on added weight for this step?
What's the material thickness and what amperage setting worked best?

Still hoping to get over there and see your project soon. Dick Reeve would also like to see it because he's looking for something else to build now that his Legacy is flying.

- Hi Ken,
The Sandbar shots are from Big Susitna, Yenta and Skwentna rivers. Lots of places to put down over there.

We had a good time. I did not realize there were so may ZAC people in ANC.
Come on down for the air show in 2 weeks.

Sorry to hear that. I am sitting right now in a hotel in Manila looking over the ocean and wondering how it would be to fly a 750 on floats around here. Oh well, nice view at least. Anyway, not sure about the best solution. In the photo I posted you can see that we drilled the holes in the horn close to the bend. Not ideal, not easy to rivet etc. Hope it passes. Will see what ZAC says after they get back to business. The 601 issue takes a lot out of their ability to focus on the rest of the builders. Will see. Let us know what you decide and keep on building. I will get back into the workshop soon, I hope.
All the best,
Stefan
