Pore ole Herb....I go into the auto parts store and ask for Gates fuel
line...Most sell that particular brand...Neoprene seems to refer to the
outside cover.. Three layers... good for 10% corn elixir... That what
you buy..John?

Wonder if Beauford gets his corn through a straw or gates hose?? Smile

For all of those on the edge of their seats Smile ,,,,Just about
ready to commit to the air...got caught in that 90% done 90% to go
syndrome...and to be honest lots of things to do on my 35 acres... The
Firefly is looking pretty good... Full enclosure is done...

Wondering if the two blade 60 inch Warp Drive prop is going to be
enough...? As I said before...I will trade a three blade,
medium(503,582) Ivo for a three blade UL version... I like the
smoothness of the IVO ..

And....all my previous builds were completely done in Insignia
White....so I have no experience in taping and trim painting....I want
to do the Bryan Milborn standard paint job...quite similar to half of
the Kolbs that are for sale on Barnstormers....The previous owner had
painted the tail feathers in a trim scheme that looks close to Factory..

Interesting that a so so Firefly for sale has an asking of 9k and a
darn pretty one 25k!! I know well that my 1k john boat will catch as
many fish as a 50K bass boat...Smile Maybe the 9k version does not come
with a fishing pole? But I digress!

The previous owner had painted the tail feathers in a trim scheme
that looks close to Factory...

I bought the standard, recommended 3M blue tape..and gathered up as
much news paper that I might need... I was warned about the type of
newspaper that has the small holes in it...

I can see laying down the first line of blue tape then overlaying
that with another line of tape which includes the blocking paper....
need all the help that I can get... Herb in Ky
