Re: EKVs New Engine

It's been a long time waiting. Good to hear that it is running on the aircraft. Particular thanks to Rob McCallum and John DeJong, and also thanks to Ed "Edge" and myself for helping put it back together. There's more work to do, including the break-in flights, but it's coming to tow you!

Golf carts

A DI needs to be done to golf carts in the morning. Check the fuel level in the gas carts every morning. Check tires are inflated. Check overall integrity of the structure, and the reel and rope.
