EP 37: Flying King Update, and going to be moving on….
This episode I get you up to date on the assembly of the wing panels on Bruce Tharpe Engineering, Flying King electric conversion. Bruce Tharpe Engineering Also, I have news.
My wife and I are moving. And the new house has a proper shop!!! No more sharing a garage with vehicles, camping gear and pickling supplies. Nope, this shop will be about 2 ½ times larger than my single bay of the three car garage present shop, and enough storage to hold the contents of my storage unit so all of those planes in the queue, parts and building materials will all be in one place again. It's going to be great. Stay tuned for the new shop update, and of course more building adventures.
