Has anyone heard anything about Jon Croke's third plane project.
What is the current situation?
Last time, when I talk with him, he send his crashed oil reservoir for my plane.
(it's fixed now http://www.project-ch701.net/ch701_engine/DSC04339.JPG).

Hi Jari,
That is wonderful that you wacked that metal can back to like new condition. Rotax lost a sale of a new one!
I should be done with my rebuild (really a new plane) before year's end. All of my human parts are mended, the metal aircraft parts take a little longer to restore.
Also, wonderful to have the company of many ham operators... myself, too: WB9HMD (ex WB4RPZ) since 1970.. when vaccuum tubes were still high tech and you stood a chance at being able to fix things yourself!
(and still copy 20 wpm cw!)

It was quite easy to repair with a round wood block and hammer. Took
about 10 minutes... Thanks to you, Rotax won't get anything from me 
> All of my human parts are mended,
I'm happy to hear that!

Yep. But it's only metal and there is a many company
who sells it. When I'm was in the flight school, I crashed
C-172 totally in my first solo flight. Front wheel sinks to
soft field and turned plane upside down while I was going to
make second take off....
Plane was unrestorable but I get only a little nick to my elbow
