I began ironing the HS and the fabric shrank and pulled away from the frame. I had to do some patch work. Then finished with the lacing set-up.

Yesterday I start on my tailwheel endorsement training. Had a great initial flight.

I decided to use Poly Fiber products. The owner before me was using something else. That is why it's pink and green.
