My first tech counselor, Dan Checkoway, moved out of the area since he visited during my empennage construction, so I needed to find someone new. Several people recommended Brian Dal Porto, a local RV-7 builder who is also an A&P mechanic, so I called him last week to schedule a visit. He stopped by today to check out the progress on my wings. He didn’t find anything that needed to be redone, but it was great to be able to run a few questions by him. He said the quality of my work was very good and well above average.
