AAAARGH!!!
As you may know, I bought an Ultrastar complete with enclosed trailer last
December a week before the airport it was located at closed. The US needed
maybe a day of work to get it flyable; the trailer was another story... it
had been used to store junk for the past 15 years or so while the plane sat
comfortably in a hangar. Pieces of rotted wood fell off the trailer all
the way home.
I figured no big deal, how tough can a trailer rebuild be? Started working
on it as soon as it got warm enough, and months later, it still seems
endless. The big stuff, floor, sides, etc., went fast enough, but night
after night I'm fussing with details... ventilation yesterday, doors the
day before, tail boom support today and tomorrow, lights next... endless
$50 and $100 purchases from McMaster and the local hardware store (my wife
LOVES that part!)... then I have to get my tow vehicle running... one of
these months maybe I'll even be able to FLY the plane!
If I had know how long it would take I'd have done the minor work to make
the plane flyable and at least put a few hours on it before bringing it
home... as it is making Homer's next month is seeming less and less likely.
Oh well, sorry, just needed to vent... I know it'll be worthwhile in the
end... but today I'm pretty tired.

Okay, who put a "stop payment" on my reality check?
