Thanks compliments guys. I've come to realize that logistics is my least favorite activity on this project. Everything goes great until something gets backordered. The past few months have been:
* Start the canard, but run out of spar cap tape, now the canard takes up my workshop table while I wait
* Spar cap tape is backordered everywhere in the world, ok
* Move onto elevator chapter, finish elevator
* Move onto nose chapter, okay still waiting on nose lift parts
* Can't buy the Oelmann pedals any more, so I have to figure out how to make those, deal with that for a while
* Now I'm stuck, can't move forward with canard, elevator, canard install, nose, or even main spar
* Start gathering parts for control system
* Jack comes through with nose lift and sells me some spare spar cap tape he has from the 90s
* Now I'm finishing off the canard finally!
* Oh and by the way, ACS still has my spar cap tape on BO, along with about a dozen other parts 2-3mo later.
* The point is really driven home when I see how easy my RV buddy has it with parts logistics
Hopefully now things are unstuck for a while. I'm hoping have the canard & elevator done and installed and the nose lift installed and working before Oshkosh.
