Come on... Do stuff! 😂 I'm really looking forward to having the new engine back into the glider. There's so much work to do.

Honestly I'm glad that all the learning of this airframe and engine was done on the old engine, and the new engine can be treated even better than the last one. The experience keeping a #selflaunchingglider going is invaluable and can't be YouTube'd... Until now!

Keep checking and watching for content from #TheSoaringChannel on YouTube for self launching glider care content. But remember: always consult your A&P/IA or authorized maintenance worker for these projects - and obviously the manuals.

The content will be there to help you and your mechanic best care for your Solo engine to keep it working as reliably as possible.
