Hey Mike,
Something very unexpected came up and I will not be able to fly this week, but give me a call Sunday or next week.

Mike,
 
I generally fly during the week after work.  I usually get to the field around 4:30 or so.  I'm waiting on a prop and probably won't make it this week though.
 
I went out yesterday, had a dead-stick, and made a forced landing in the weeds.  No real damage, just a broken prop blade.  I'm not positive what caused the engine to quit, but inspection revealed the carb was loose.  I believe it was sucking some extra air and lost its fuel prime.  I'll have to wait on the new prop to run it up on the ground before I put it back in the air.
 
BTW, my work number is 386-6954.  I usually keep the Zeke in the back of my car and can go on relatively short notice.
 
Lamar

I may make it out there later this afternoon in hopes to maiden my P-39. I have to do some charging though. I will let you know Dave if I decide to.

Just got done mowing and it seems to be a bit windy, coupled with me being worn out I probably will not make it out today.
