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.

At the Airport
The trailer was originally made when we had 6.00 x 6 wheels and tires. The current 8.00 x 4 wheels and tires are wider and rub on the side rails of the trailer. The 2x8 raises the tires so they don't rub and provide an easy place to screw down the wheel chock.
The eye bolts are to tie down the landing gear.
It all worked well for our 15 mile trip to the airport. George and Dave helped with the move and putting the wings back on. Unfortunately I left the bag with the bolts for the upper wings at the house. I'll get them installed and everything safetied.
Looking Good!
