It looks as though we have a great week coming up – the weather forecast is totally rain-free with some chilly nights (hurray, will kill all those mozzies off!), low wind speeds and temperatures around 20 deg C (nearly 70 deg F) in the latter half of the week. My first job will be to finish off my satellite installation and I might drive the 250 miles each way later in the week to get my floor tiles. But what I would really like to do is make a proper start on the X-Air – fit the new trim and brake cables and front wheel bearings and start on the new panel. With those done it won’t need very much to get it back together again and flyable. Then I must chase up the guys in the French CAA about getting my French licence. Oh yeah – and while it’s dry, I must give my grass a final cut as well. There always has to be a ‘downer’, doesn’t there 😐
