Thanks to those on the list... my gas tank has been repaired by way of their
advice... it turned out to be easy to do and very secure using the self
sealing rivet and prosealant. Not a drip as I inspect thru a lexan patch in
the bottom of the wing (cant find the nerve to drill rivets for that cover!)
Nice to be back in the air!

There is a wonderful article in this issue of Kitplanes on Frank Hinde's 601
with Subaru engine...detailing his experience of the auto conversion with
the plane. Good aircraft pictures, but no picture of Frank!
For those of you with high speed internet, there is a 3 minute clip of my
1st flite at:

Still a smile (maybe it wears off a little after 40 hrs?)

Jon,

Nice video. Looks like you have been flying that plane for years.

It's really how easy it is to land that plane.. you're only going about
40mph!
