Tim,

I played with my ultralight, but I never took it out of the hangar.  :-)  It
rained a little at the airport (up in Clare), but most of the serious storms
were to the south.

I did some fine tuning of the idle mixture and worked on a new throttle
quadrant installation.  Out of the box my ultralight had a twist grip throttle
on the control stick.  It works fine, but I prefer the traditional type
airplane throttle quadrant.
