Build Diary -October-06

Today I contacted PFA to see how permit is progressing. Just in case something has gone missing in post or they have not been able to contact me for any reason. Was told it is still with engineer and he is now on holiday for two weeks. The test permit is going to take a long while.

After getting the permit to test I still need - Availability of test pilot, as I am not allowed to do it myself. Good weather, its October now and will be November before I get the permit!!! After the test flights all the paperwork has to go back to the PFA.... Another 6weeks??? I figure I will not get to fly my RV this year!

So here are some pictures of Oscar...... the new addition to our family. He is 12 years old, so he is quite an old boy!!

Ali, his previous owner is emigrating to Australia and Oscar would not like the long flight. So he came and joined our family.
