I'll take care of y'all. I'm just sitting in a hotel room at the present, pictureless. I'll be sure to post a picture or two this weekend though. :)

Eric,

How much money is in it for me if I post some pictures? I broke the starter on my spam can last week, and I could sure use some extra funding to pay for the repairs. :wink:

I'll check with Aircraft Accessories on my "price" and get back with you, Eric! :shock: Just funnin'--I'll defer to Gary on the photos, though.

Have a great weekend knowing I'll be pulling the %*^&#! cowlings off my elderly Mooney (they stink on ice).

I think the red and yellow shoestring in this video from the Denver IF1 race is the one Gary is going to be racing.

If you were in the hangar when I remove the cowling you would most likely learn some of my "advanced aviation words". It takes longer to get it uncowled than it does to pull the engine off by a factor of two. Not one of general aviation's finest engineering features, but Mooney did improve the design a few years later.

Thanks for the offer!

Okay, here are a couple pictures of Time Bandit. Sorry for the poor quality.......

Oh, and yes, that is Another Solution's wing installed in these pictures, but it was just on there briefly when I was trying something out. The original wing will be what is used for Time Bandit, not mine.

Thanks for the pics... and I didn't have to pay Scott anything 8) Looks great. Are those Time Bandits wings in the back ground? Can't wait for Reno. Good luck with everything Gary!
