Well done Glenn. Another amazing feat. No wonder we call you "Great Sage!"

  Here is the current status of the plane. Ailerons have been altered to improve control, washout has been added to the tips, only inboard leading edge slats function, tail wheel is now steerable and lights now work on wheel pants using a single switch and main battery as opposed to the separate battery previously required.
  Things left to do include place windows back on the airframe, adding a new fiberglass cowl, re-program radio for new functions and finally re-balance the aircraft.done...PHEW!

  Thank you guys, really appreciate the kind words.
  Cheers!

Can't wait to see this back in the air.  One of the most unique planes I've seen.  Beautiful.

Hey @electroflyer,

How many bottles of Coke (photo IMG_20201225_135845) did it take to get this far in this remarkable lightning rehab?  I may have to start using the stuff.  Do you drink it or use an IV drip?

The most pressing question: what are we going to change the name of Lysander Forest to?
