    Mark,
    I know it must be tearing you apart inside, just looking at your Dyne sitting there in the hangar, waiting to launch and rotate up there in a perfect-level Manitowish Chain where no prop ever hits bottom and the hi-test fuel flows freely and cheap from a nearby point. Those spring days after ice out will be here in a few short months and I just hope you are not getting too heavy on the sauce as it will cause the "Buffalo Herd Theory" to be enacted in your brain and my concern is that your brilliant career will suffer and along with it your sensory ability to enjoy that crankin' Dyne of yours at a maximum level of enjoyment. Not to mention the loss of the ability to fly the plane up to the Lake at a maximum of safety and pilot proficiency. Put that rotgut away and focus on the positives, like a clean hangar and a coat of wax on the boat and plane. Keep working hard so the family can play hard with you.
    OK, just joking about the sauce, but it has been a garbage winter around here and I would understand an intelligent human taking a snort here and there to ease the frustration. Why, I have done it myself and it helps to stay warm in the cold.
    Wax On, Wax Off, Grasshopper.

    I never even noticed the bottle until you pointed it out.

    Not sure what that says about me.... :roll:

    I'm sure one of my neighbors left that there....

    And it looks as though you're using the bottle for a paperweight. I love it! :drink:

    Good point

    Things can blow around in a hangar. Particularly if you roll the airplane out and fire it up with the hangar door still open. I've made that mistake. Everything in the hangar looks like a tornado hit it. :roll:
