Hi Gang:

Flew down to South Mississippi Light Aircraft this morning to have the
gearbox inspected.

Passed with flying colors. No wear after more than 1,200.0 hours. In
fact, we could not shim it up any tighter than it was approximately
450 hours ago when I had the slip clutch installed. Bearings and
gears looked new.

Flew 360 sm in 3.9 hours. Not bad for a 15 year old fat ultralight.

Take care,

john h

Wow!

That is an average of 92.3 mph.

Twenty mph tail wind both ways?

Or did you mean 4.9 hours?

Not hard to do cruising 85 to 90 mph!

Actually, I did have a little help from the wind going and coming.
