December 6, 2008:  The usual Saturday morning friends showed up for today's luncheon.  Terry McDowell brought venison prepared in two different styles.  There were plenty of side items and a few deserts.

There was just enough flourescent light in the shop to prevent the flash from going off.   John Myers and Larry Champion are in an RV-8 discussion as usual.   I recently helped Larry align his RV-8 landing gear and drill them into the fuselage supports.

Even though the flight home will only take about 20 minutes, Harley checks the fuel in the tanks before departure.

This airplane got a new O-360 engine just before Harley bought it in North Carolina.  It has a Sensenich fixed-pitch "cruise prop" up front.

The wing upper surface is covered with the vinyl flag artwork, but the wheel pants sure look like they are painted.
