Looking good, Dave. Just don't get too caught up in meeting a deadline, orthat word can be prophetic.I'm trying to figure out the engine you've shown. It looks like aContinental without the intake system mounted, but if so it looks to bemounted upside down on that engine mount. Or is it a Lycoming O-235 withoutthe starter ring gear in place? The picture is too small to tell.Jack PhillipsNX899JPRaleigh, NC _____

I'm not worried about getting paid for the stickers. They cost me almost nothing to make. For those that I end up having to ship them to, I wouldn't mind being reimbursed for the shipping costs.
