This blog records the history of Building, Flying and Changing our Fly Baby. The plane is alive and well so this will be an ongoing story. The principals in this story are Ernest and Dennis Harbin. All the family and many friends participated in this adventure. Ernie and Dennis will both make comments in posts. We both saw all this through our own eyes and remember things differently, so you'll get our thoughts and memories.

Moved Vacuum Gauge Bracket
When I made the bracket for temporarily mounting the vacuum gauge I didn't realize the 2 bolts I mounted it on were actually outside the cowling. To use the 2 lower bolts meant a more complicated bracket.
Instead I modified this bracket to mount on 2 of the windshield screws. It moves back slightly but it's still at an angle I can read, it's clear of the throttle quadrant, and I can remove it once the vacuum restrictor is adjusted. This works.
