Was a good week in general. No real show stoppers yet from flying to Lakeland sunday a week if I have another good week. The closest thing to stopping me from coming is cockpit noise. If I had a wave off on approach and needed max power, it is difficult to hear the radio with an ANR headset. Made some progress today by removing the front rigid mount and hanging the exhaust/muffler with a large ground strap. The flat weave type. Am doing it on the back strap today. Probably no flying tomorrow, weather. May get some time in Sunday pm.

No significant decisions on flap door goodness. Am glad I still have the blocked off intake on the chin and room to mount a secondary radiator if necessary.

Bernie,
