Back into it!
I was ashamed to see I hadn't done a build update since February 2012 - 18 months!!
Had actually done some building work in that time (not much, admittedly) - but have done the rear spars, clecoed the top skin on the right wing and flipped the wing over.
Today I got back into it after a few months of no activity, drilled the bottom skin and positioned it, and got a few clecoes in. Glad to break the seal again and hopefully will be doing more building in the evenings now that we have daylight savings, and the weather is getting a bit warmer!

We think we will settle in the nw between sheffield and irishtown but will drive around first and check out our other favourite places like cygnet and geeveston. Excuse the punn but we're just going to wing it. Look forward to meeting you. My private email is ch601xl@yahoo.com.au

Good advice guys! Whereabouts in Tassie are you moving to, Phill? I'm south of Hobart, let me know when you're settled in and we'll catch up.

Aint that the truth Jake. Keep going Marty. Do some fun parts like pulling rivets or whatever takes your fancy. Fun = motivation. Moving to Tassie on the 5th of Nov. Hope to meet up.

Life tends to get in the way. It took me 5 years to build my XL, and in the past 3 I've barely had time to fly or do upgrades. I basically missed this flying season, but I'm hopeful that next year will be better.
Just keep doing stuff, eventually, you will have an airplane.
