 Hello, Rob....
 RH> I was out on the weekend and had to block the front of the head off 
 RH> because it was so cold that the glow plug wouldn't stay lit :) 
 
 Hmmmmm....I knew you Canadians were TOUGH - but going to that extreme
 just to bore holes through the sky is a little too much for me (gr).
 Last weekend was JUST RIGHT down here...about 58 deg F, very mild
 breeze, lots of sun - we had 12 of our local pilots out chasing the
 birds - only one crash (an ARF) but easily rebuildable.
 
 RH> I've never built a Balsa USA kit. I find that mail order is a bit 
 RH> of a pain up here and usually end up just going to the local hobby
 RH> store. I do make the journey to the Toledo show whenever I can tho.
 
 Balsa USA's kits are next to Great Planes in my favorite category - easy
 building, good instructions, blue prints not great but OK, good quality
 and real good price.  Over the years I've built the Phaeton 90, the 
 Enforcer delta-wing, the Bristol, two Citabria Pro, the big Stingray,
 and a Fly-Baby bipe - all still going except the Bristol.  BTW, not all
 of these are mine - many were built for other pilots who either didn't
 have time or space.
RM> Are you building any new stuff to get ready for the warm weather ?
 RM> TTYL - Roger
 RH> I've been too busy messing with the stupid computer to get to the 
 RH> workshop. :) I'll have to get down there soon tho and finish all those
 RH> projects that seem to build up :)
 
 OK - understood...I've just finished an upgrading treatment on my system -
 larger hard-drive, tape backup, and Windows 95 - jury still out on the
 Win95 - haven't learned to move around very well at this point - have the
 system backed-up before Win95 so real easy to return to Win3.11 - if
 things don't come clear pretty soon...bingo...the change gets made !!!!
 As for projects, I thought I was busy BEFORE I retired - it's worse now.
 OK, back to the shop.....TTYL - Roger
... Catch the Blue Wave!
