Kevin, thanks for the vote of confidence!!! Based on everything that Jonathan had done to 61N, I don't think there is much more that could be replaced... I sure hope I get many hours and years of enjoyment out of her... she really is a nice bird. I will keep everyone posted on my adventures with 61N. Getting home to Missouri from Mojave CA, was the first of our adventures, everything went fine... although I had the cowl flap cable come loose on final into Scottsdale AZ and I did smoke the right tire a little landing in Albuquerque NM in 35kt 30 degree crosswind, and learned to return the flap lever to neutral in Amarillo TX.... I was still smiling when I arrived home in MO.
