OK, so this happened earlier this week:
Here's the short story:
1) IO-540-G (angle valve), AEIO mods, RSA-10 servo, Raven cold air and exhaust, MT MTV-9 prop, all components FWF complete.
2) Carbon fiber cowl, carbon fiber turtle deck
3) Gear, brakes, tailwheel, all controls, all instruments (need to be installed).
4) Canopy needs to have a little finish, some minor work to wings, instrument panel, and wiring.
5) Cover and paint.
This is the second S1-11 the owner built. He's just getting to the point he wants to change direction in life and decided to bail.
So I guess now I know what I'm doing this summer. Now I just need some good advice about covering this beast. Double-cover, or just single and lots of stitching? I know this isn't the same as covering my Skybolt. Any input is welcome.
And I said I was going to stop building and just fly... right.
