Just add wash-in!

Folks,

Ross Eastman has blessed us with a bit of sheet-metal wizardry! Cessna 04H has had her right wing completely rebuilt from the ground-up, spars reconstructed, and the entire wing has been reattached and repainted -- all in 6 days!

We test-flew the plane yesterday, and word is that she flies straight, true, and "hands off" when trimmed correctly. She has been re-added to the schedule, and we look forward to much better flying out of her. Hop onto the schedule while you can! :)

Cherokee 08F has had a copilot PTT installed, as well as some radio troubleshooting done.

Cessna 72F has a new voltage regulator installed, and her transponder/encoder recalibrated (there was an issue of "intermittent transponder return" which should now be solved).

Cessna 20U has passed her 100hr inspection with flying colors.

Cessna 68U has passed her 100hr inspection with flying colors.

Cessna 08V will be back "any day now", pending final inspections and an engine run-in.

We're experiencing a heavy maintenance January, but I believe we're almost done getting on top of all of the issues. Let us know if you experience any problems.

Blue Skies!
