Hi Pieter
I see you coming along nicely. Is the rudder done now?

Re: Pieter Visser's X350
Hi Bret,
Great to hear from you
Nope, I'm hibernating in the cold. Glue is syrup and garage is a freezer. All weak excuses, but I've not done much in the last couple of months. Been reading up quite a bit about power plants and options in that space.
I've been motivating myself to get back to work, so I will be getting back on the rudder in the next week or 2. There really isn't much left, except for sanding and filling of course
I've done some test fits and all is looking good. I've also bought a big scale, so I'll be able to put the rudder on it and get some weight numbers, as well as on the spar box, which should be interesting. That spar box weights a lot!
Cheers,
Pieter

Re: Pieter Visser's X350
I'm back
Summer is in the air, much warmer in the afternoons although mornings and evenings are still cool.
Started cleaning the garage and put a couple of layers micro on the rudder so will be sanding shortly...
I'll keep logs again
