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.

Safety Chains and First Coat of Paint
To attach the Safety Chains I made a bracket from a piece of the scrap channel from the boat trailer.
It bolts on to the tongue under the hitch coupler.
I've used 1/2" Grade 5 bolts for this and the 2 Coupler bolts.
We had a day of sunny, almost 60 degree weather. I was able to get the first coat of paint. People should be able to see it anyway. Once I get a second coat on the yellow I'll do some red trim.
We also need some decking and the wiring.
