December 24 2004

We received our parts from Rotorway and

It wasn't pretty lol

This is what the box looked like
when it arrived at our shop in Knoxville, Tennessee, that
we paid $126.00 bucks to have shipped to us.

Having crumpled tail boom flashbacks from when we first recieved our kit, you can imagine what we were thinking and feeling when we saw this box come in
Insert your words here_________________ lol

Then the dummy who obviously wasn't to happy about having to deliver packages on Christmas Eve wouldn't let us open it to see if it was damaged until we signed for it, like it wasn't open already lol.   Lets see if we don't sign for it he won't leave it, and if we do sign for it, it's ours, what a sweat moment lol.  Well by now were pretty used to getting screwed so what the heck we took our chances, signed his bill and let Mr. Negative Attitude go on his merry way continuing to spread joy and happiness to his other customers who were awaiting his cheerful arrival.

WooHooo Everything was A ok lol

The stringers were 11 feet long and the box was 12.  What are the odds that the metal would be in the oppsite end of the fubared end of this box lol.  Too bad we didn't buy a lottery ticket today <sigh> cause luck sure was with us.

Not much stuff for such a big box is it lol

Heres our rivets for the job

which were either packaged wrong or our blue print was wrong,
The parts were right they just had opposite numbers on the bags,
I guess well find out if we got the right amount of each one by the time were done
