Rudders!

Hey everyone!

I just created an album called "Rudders". I placed the picture that we all have of the first part we all build - the rudder!

I invite everyone to put their rudder picture in that album for all to see.

4.3 hours this weekend? Consider me jealous. My flying time is a bit scarce for a few weeks while I help my oldest son do some renovations on a "new" old house. Look for us in the fall series of HGTV entitled "This Damned Old House".

The weather has been sorta tropical-wannabe for most of the week anyway. The temps are down a bit with highs around 90 rather than 95 - 97 as it had been. The humidity is back up so it's still pretty miserable after 9AM. At least we haven't had any serious storms to deal with so far this season.

Have fun.

"Is it sacrilegious to install a Van's part on a Zenith Aircraft?"

In a country that currently worships at the altar of diversity? Really? You might actually get a medal for such open-mindedness.

How have you been?

I hope it is not sacrilegious as I have some Van's stuff in a Zodiac. My map box, cool air ball valve vent and cabin light from the vans catalog site.

Most certainly not Tim, but I would bet my last dollar, that if the shoe were on the other foot, it most certainly would be. !

Hi Tim,

I just watched your videos again. Nice editing. I am going to try that with some of my material.

Keep flying and if you ever get out to my neck of the woods be sure to let me know. Lunch/dinner is on me.

I uploaded a larger photo of me with my completed rudder onto my Zenith page. I'm not sure how to add it to your rudders album.

"Dr Moody, Glad to hear about your continued flying experiences. "

Thanks Tim. I'll continue flying and posting as long as the plane is considered legal by the FAA. I personally am satisfied with the airframe as is and have no plans to do the mods at this time. CH's comments indicate to me that he would still be confident to fly it or have his sons do so. Together with the flying records of a few guys on the list whom I respect, I find that an adequate assurance for me and mine. I may have been cited as being macho or in denial in a recent blog post (no names were mentioned but I think my tongue in cheek humor was referenced) but it is more of a calculated risk situation to me.

Ed

PS: I have no motorcycle and I don't run with scissors.
