New title added to our library

I just added Flying the Bald Eagle Ridge to the library located in the Safety and Training section of our website.

Thank you Kevin for loaning the book so Moshe could digitize it to pdf.

Enjoy!

Blanik L-13 Update

From Blanik America

The FAA sent yet another engineering stress analysis request to the developers of the German repair kit rather than accepting that which has already been approved by the European FAA counterpart, EASA.
This adds an extra complication which may require additional time and expense. If and when there is progress on the side of the FAA we will put an announcement in the News section of our website.
Sorry I don’t have a more positive news to report.

Sincerely,

BLANIK AMERICA, INC.

L-19 Engine

Overhaul is done!

Christopher and I left Post Mills @ 1:45 and got back home at 9:30, very long day indeed.

Engine looks great (even when shrink-wrapped), now all we have to do is install it.

Oh, and the Blanik has been de-gunked and assembled thanks to Mike, Steve, Tim, Nancy, Tom (and me).
