Looking at the alt. I wonder where this is?

Looking good, Jerry. Is it flying now? If not, what's your predicted date?

Just moved to San Diego so had to put the project on hold for about 5 mo. but just got a hanger and strated back into the restore. Hope to be looking at its first flight next summer.

Amazing work Jerry, it looks GREAT!

Nothing beats that second picture; the moment the fabric starts to shrink around the stringers and an airplane starts to appear. After God knows how many hours/days/years you've worked on a project, it's the best sight for sore eyes! Personally when I get everything shrunk, I like to just sit back and look at it; all pure white without a single blemish with the silhouette of the stringers.... oh yeah baby!

Nice work Jerry!

Jerry,

What part of San Diego is the airplane located? Was just in Carlsbad twice last week. Have seen some Aeronca's at Brown and Montgomery.

Looks very nice!

Jerry,

A few years ago I worked for a company that flew into Brown 2-3 times a year. Unfortunately thats all past now and have not been there in a while. Was in Carlsbad last week but thats the closest I have been recently.

If I get near will let you know and stop by!
