Don't feel too bad for the Cruisemaster, it's living here now. Marilyn and I have been chipping away at this hangar & home project for the last 10 years. Well at least we got the hangar....

Lots of work to go inside the fuselage. Here is the flap motor and bellcrank assembly. I've fabricated the push rods and fit the flaps...now to enlarge the push rod hole in the fuse, and hook it all up, adjust it and fit the fillet fairings.

The wings went back on quickly. I started hooking up the flight controls, and Marilyn started polishing.

The Cruisemaster gets the boot!! The wings are brought up to the hangar the day after the fuselage was squeezed in. Now the Bellanca goes to it's new hangar, and the wings go on the RV-8.
