Well, a few days ago, I strolled out into the 'Shangar' to do some work (first time in a long while !) and thought she didn't look to be sitting quite right. As part of my 'pre-flight prior to some 'Shangar flying, I found one of the tail wheels had given up the ghost. Ok, it was only flat at the bottom but it wouldn't take any air.
No worries thought I, its about time I changed the undercart to a more substantial set of wheels I'd acquired. Yeh, righty...you try doing any mechanical work when your son has swiped all the tools to work on one his cars....Grrrrrrr. Anyroad, end result of an hours work and she's all sitting pretty on her new wheels.
Here's the old set once removed...and the reson why the tyre wouldn't hold air !!
Here's the new set (I'd allready fitted two before I remembered to take some shots using my 'phone.) and they have totally transformed the mobility of my 'Babe
Then, it was time for some 'Shangar flying using the new set of notes I've recently brought. It does prove that I have a long way to go to get really 'comfy' with the start-up procedure, prior to her next offical outing when I'm aiming to let people sit inside for the first time.
And the final shot is my 'to-do list for thext two months. Gonna be very busy !!
