Good engine, Jerry. I know it seems early to acquire the engine, butbelieve me, it is not. There are many decisions you will have to make whenyou get to the fuselage that are easier to make if you know what engine youwill hang on it.Ribs are slow. It took me 3 hours per rib, so I built one rib a night for amonth.Too bad you'll miss Brodhead. It's the best 3 days of the entire year.Jack PhillipsNX899JPRaleigh, NC-----Original Message-----
