    Great to hear of the first official flight of FOXD! A great achievement with so much else going on at your stage of life!

    I feel even closer to your achievement as you are one of a 'cohort' of builders that I started with and from whom I appreciated your support, advice, encouragement and wisdom. I wish you all the best for the fly-off process .... and I also note that Ben is another member of our cohort that started about the same time .... so please join with me in prodding him towards completion at the same time as enjoying all the fun that you and Nat deserve to experience e as a result of a great build that has created a beautiful aircraft!!!

    Congratulations and best wishes

    Yeah, I echo exactly what John said. You give hope that even this slow guy will get there (actually getting pretty close now). Congrats again!
