Build Progress Summary
Trimmed the port skin to match the fuselage frame over the week then filled the staple holes and sanded the port skin smooth.
Daylight saving kicks in this coming weekend so I am hoping to get a bit more time on the build front.
Goals For The Coming Week
- Glue the starboard skin to the fuselage frame.
- Trim the starboard skin to match the fuselage frame.
- Cut and glue together the bottom skin for the fuselage.
Recent News off the KRNet
The KR Gathering was pretty eventful for those who attended. Two KR's crashed on the way to Mount Vernon airport but fortunately
both pilots survived the crashes although both with injuries which required hospitalisation. My thoughts and best wishes for a quick
recovery go out to both pilots involved.
Both aircraft involved have effectively been written off as the images below show. The weather also made life difficult for those trying
to return home after the event.
Links to local newspaper articles about the crashes and the Gathering are listed below.
