I thought we were due for somemore pictures of what I have been doing these past few weeks at school. We have just finished up welding, and airframe electrical, and will be finishing fabric at the end of next week.

What a breathtaking view! The view from above never fails to amaze me, but so is making a plane! Creating such wonderful machines is fascinating. I remember how amazed I was when I helped my brother build his RV7. I even did the welding, which was a first time for me then.
