I’m at OSH now and here through Saturday. Wouldn’t miss it as I’ve been going 23 years now, but I’m only 2 hours drive from Aviation Mecca! You might not want to come Don as it drains your wallet!

Flew her again today - gusty crosswind practice. I’ll post pic of where I’m putting my iPad mini now (co-pilots side of the windshield).

I go for my 3rd class medical again tomorrow (have to do the whole thing every year now). I passed all the required test so hopefully it’s just a formality with the AME...

Why not just go Basic Med then you don't have to worry about it?

Oil report came back. Looking way better! Chrome a little higher but I’m told by Blackstone that is normal for Millennium cylinders. Metal is way, way down and should get better in succeeding reports as I put more hours on engine. At the time of oil change. ~30 tach hours on the engine. Running great…

Dropped off this morning. Went over everything with the shop. Excited to see how it all comes together!

Things moving along! Shop found a discrepancy in the roll servo arm length, needed to be shortened on my bird. Minor modification thankfully. I’ll be heading out Monday for a review and were adding a second cigarette light socket for additional power for future items I may want to power up. Excited to see the panel update for the flat pack…

AeroCruze 100 Install PICS!  Moving right along.  We discussed the changes today -- cnc'ing the rod length etc for both pitch and roll.  Install looks great so far.  Decided to do a new Pilot's side panel and cover it with the 3M Carbon Fiber to make it all look the same.  This will allow the shop to organize and not deal with previous 'holes' that were covered over.  Hardware is about finished for install -- wire is being run.  Gonna look nice once completed!

Looks great!  You'll like the recessed G5s.
