Another S1-S

I'll have to get busy with this plane.I'll post some photos soon.
As far as I can tell by checking the faa data base, this plane is close to the last Aerotek S1 they put out.
  Features of this build will be :Wolf carbon cowl and spinner.Wolf wings(ribs almost done) Steve Hill solid carbon fiber prop. Skydynamics  sump/intake and flywheel. New dashboard I made with Trig radio&transponder(ADS-B) Have both Van's wheelpants with 500-5 tires and Sam James wheelpants for 5-4.00 tires(RAR) Engine is a to be assembled 9-1 compression narrow deck 360..With flow matched new ECI cylinders.(Thanks to John in Las Vegas for the awesome flowmatch job)..Titanium firewall from Tony Horvath all engine components in the hangar ready to assemble.Had Ly-Con In Visalia add the AEIO inverted oiling hole to the back of the engine case..
 The plane came with a S1-T rudder from the factory that I will retain..Log books show the original owner purchase from the factory to be none other than Bill Cornick from So-Cal..Called him up and got a great stories about the plane..
  Extra time is hard to find these days but the target is to have it flying by the  end of 2018..
