Engine update

Today I got this note from TCM. 

Good morning, Adam.


Your engines should be ready to ship close to the Friday, April 8th / Monday, April 11th time frame.  I'll plan on giving you an update early to mid next week.  If this estimate doesn't slip, both engines should be moving to the test run phase by the middle of next week.

That's great news.  The shop also reports they have the elevator off and so I need to get over there and take it up to Frank at AeroSurfaces for reskinning.  I ordered the kit today from SRS:  http://www.srsaviation.com/elevators.htm  Frank estimates about a week to complete, balance and paint.  Props are also being pulled off right now and should be shipped to Stockton propeller tomorrow for overhaul.  So far so good.  Now I just need to remember how to fly a single engine plane so I can transport that elevator and get over to the shop to snap some pics of the progress!
