Sequel to LSA America's visit

On our way back from Littleton, we stopped at Chuck Borsuk's workshop where Terry was to perform an inspection per his accredited EAA technical counselor function. Chuck is building a Pietenpol, a classic wooden plane and we were not disappointed by his workshop which feels more like a cabinet maker's than a plane builder's. Most impressing was the organization and tidiness of a shop whose tools and machines, beside Pietenpol parts are mostly producing sawdust and wood shavings. Not being qualified to comment on the work done so far, I let you make your own mind by looking at the following pictures. Needless to say, Chuck passed his inspection without reserve.







I have to say that there are rumors that the parrot bribed Terry's into giving Chuck a good grade... One might argue that a bird should be a good source of advice for a Tech Counselor but this one has clipped wings!
