No, only made it to ROTC and a wife intervened. My uncle is a retired B-52 pilot and was the person who got me interested in flying. Also, my friend Jeff is a retired Col. who was at Offut and is the guy supervising all the electronics work. He is building a Pober Jr. Ace. We both hope to fly by end of summer.
Christopher, my glareshield consists of rubber trim covering the sharp rear edge and I bought it from Zenith. The black area in front of that up to the canopy line is Rustoleum black black spray paint.
