KK7Z, well that sounds like a fine weekend, you got out quite a bit, which is good. I'll live vicariously through you for now. Just kidding. And bicycling sounds wonderful. And N8THJ, I see what you wrote, and also VA6TRZ, so I'll put VA6TRZ and K5EWH on the top of the next list. So hang in there guys, and thanks for the relay. Alright, but anyway, thanks so much for your check-in, Joe, and thanks for sharing what you're up to, and the history you have there. It's interesting. I can see why you would want to work on Labor Day, sure. Get two days off elsewhere, so good trade. Anyway, thanks so much for your check-in, and thanks for giving me the heads up about what's going on with 3039, in case that ends up being a problem during the net. Well, alright, we're going to leave Las Vegas, we're going to head over to Irvine, California, and pick up Glenn, K6. KKR, good morning to you, Glenn. Good morning Barbara, everybody else on the net here this morning. Shaping up like a beautiful day, I think it will maybe not be as hot as yesterday, it was crazy hot and crazy humid, but we got sunshine, should be a beautiful day here. Yeah, yesterday was the big hanger day, that's when we got all of the student teams out. Learned a couple things, a number of us had to huddle together here because we learned that we are now up to 90 engineering students that are participating in the build of this airplane, and so a number of things, I mean just like a classroom teacher, we have to make sure that everybody is engaged, has something to do, and stays interested, and that they don't become bored, and all those kinds of things, which has really not been a problem so far, they're so engaged, it's absolutely incredible, but we're making great, great progress, so we're at the point where things are going to accelerate quite a bit, because we've laid out all the parts, we've identified everything, and so we know exactly where to go with everything, and now starting to think about getting some training on how to put the fabric on, it's quite an art to do that, so we have a couple of people we want to bring in to teach us how to put that skin on, but it was hot in those hangers, there's no air conditioning, we try to open up a number of the hanger doors to let the breeze blow through, yesterday it didn't help much at all, I mean we were all just sweltering in the heat there, so by the time I got home, took a shower and went to sleep, you know it just drained every ounce of energy out of me, but it was great, enjoyed it very much, so I hope this all is not a broken record, it's just kind of the big deal in my life right now. So with that, Glennon Irvine, KA6, TKR, back to the net.
