Thatcher CX5

[Trey Kule]

Howis  the project progressing?  Do we get progress reports and pics of the construction?

[Chuck Ellsworth]

I am  waiting for the weather to warm up so I can work comfortably in the garage, it would cost a small fortune to heat it with electric space heaters.


And I am trying to figure out how much material I can get the cash to pay for.


The whole materials list comes to over $26,000 .00 from Spruce Aircraft and my owner won't give me that much...so I cut her off and am waiting until she weakens and lets me take that much out of our savings account.


I wonder how effective that will be?

Is that really the planes’s fault? Propellors dont typically come off unintentionally. One should maybe look towards the builder or maintainer.

I like the little rascals. Was hoping we would be getting progress updates with pics from Chuck, but after 2+ years I guess not.
