Right Jim

And if you really want to save that 50 lbs. or so........Go on a diet.
Or better yet
don't put that extra 10 gallons of fuel in the airplane, and most of

alone......Imagine how much you could save there.

Had another builder tell me he wouldn't use tie wraps. Always tied up
his his wiring
bundles with waxed cord......tie wraps are much too heavy.

C'mon guys.....give us a break.
