Nice plane Steve. I looked for your aircraft last year at Arlington but I never found you. Someone said you were there but left rather quickly. Hope to see you this year.

I will update everyone on the final weight and performance numbers. The height to bottom of the wing is 7' 2". The distance to the top of the tail is 9'1".
With 7 Rebels/Elites flying in the greater Seattle area , two now on Amphibs, I hope to see a good turn out this year at Arlington. Maybe Al Paxia will have his Super Rebel flying ?

I modified the front supplied attached blocks by shorting / tapering them, and relocating the attach holes. With the middle bolt on the center line of the strut the upper and lower bolts are about 5/32" off center. I cannot make any new adjustments up or down on the front strut, but on the rear strut I can adjust 3/4 inch up or down from it's current location. If I had it to do over I would just make new ones with the correct angles.
Regards,
Steve Sloan

Steve,
When Arlington comes around this summer mention on the list what days you plan on being there. I would love to see your plane in person.
I hope to have my Rebel flying but doubt I'll have enough hours flown off to bring it over. I'll have to fly my Kitfox. I'll bring pictures so I can brag a bit.
