Default Post-Annual Flight

Well, good for you...

I will post an analysis of my annual if I ever get it done - minus the
usual halfway, tongue in cheek, descriptions of The Kid and his helper
Father Time whom I haven't mentioned yet...

But a tantalizing preview of some new findings I haven't whined
about . . . errr, discussed . . . yet...
both props have to go to the prop shop to have the studs replaced
after some a**hole gorilla over torqued them...
And right now we are puzzling over the PowerPak, whereby the gear will
fold up in spite of the bird sitting on the squat valve if someone
accidently raises the gear lever... It looks like the pac has to be
removed and rebuilt - at least 2 amu, if not more, in labor and
parts...

As Senator Evert Dirkson said (before many of you were born), "AN AMU
here and an AMU there, and pretty soon you are talking real money"...
