He will be planting a nice tree as\nsoon as the weather permits. They have redesigned it to not have a drain. They\nshould be laying bricks this next week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A discussion on the Holiday Farm fire and how it has\naffected several members.

He has 8 hours on it now and has had a few teething pains with the Viking View display. They also found that the main gear bolts were not tightened sufficiently. He is going to have Dale accompany him on future flights using the \u201cAdditional Pilot Program\u201d, which this aircraft qualifies for. He also had the front strut powder coated which has caused some friction in the controls. They will sand off the powder where needed and that should take care of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paul Buehler then gave his presentation about the work he\ndid with Heli-Tech to heat treat metal and cut parts with a water jet. He had\nsome nice slides and a lot of interesting stories.
