Re: Its Mine all Mine

Nice score, man. I added your photo for you since it was in the approval queue. You can avoid that in the future by just creating your own user album.

Looks cool with the 8GCBC gear! What are Milman spars? Are they metal?

Re: Its Mine all Mine

Milman spares are metal and remove the ADs but do not yet have the increased gross weight that the factory units do, but i have heard that it is in the works. They also are 1/4 of the cost

Re: Its Mine all Mine

Nice Mongo, I get to fly a similarly set up 160hp Citabria back here now and then (when Bill occasionally has it home from Montana).

I'm daydreaming about building a Rans S-7. :P But you never know...

I love the Champ lineage. Roomy and fun flyers. Good choice.

Steve,
My PMs don't seem to work, they go to the outbox and just live there, guess its probably user error.
