I took this to document that the plane was intact prior to my departure

Re: Name change for the Eternal Project
Congratulations Paul!
I know it's been a frustrating effort trying to get recurrent in 83C but we finally made it! I enjoyed traveling, flying, and hanging out with you all those times. It's always a pleasure to fly with someone who is really trying to improve their skills and it's definitely a pleasure flying in a pristine freshly restored plane, especially a 170.
Now you can get comfortable flying the old girl again at your own pace. I hope the weather allows you to get out at least 2 or 3 times a week until you feel like you're "back in the saddle". Have fun and let me know when you want to meet at Cooper's Bar-B-Q in Llano for lunch.

Congratulations Paul. Wished I'd known you where stuck for a instructor, I'd have considered a trip to Texas to get you in the air.

Congratulations Paul. I knew you could do it. Now get comfortable with it because we want to see “the beast” in Cody.
Remember, any landing where the plane can be reused is a good one!

Re: Name change for the Eternal Project
Another milestone today! I was working on my plan to help fund the federal government when Debra sent me a text and requested I take her flying since it was such a beautiful day,and she had an hour that wasn’t committed. Well I hated to leave the computer and all those numbers but when SHE asks to fly I had to oblige her request. Looked at my logbook when I got home and noticed the last time she flew with me was October of 92 when we went to Roswell for Benedict’s fly-in. I’m encouraged, she actually enjoyed it!
Contrary to what I see from that picture we did NOT fly inverted!
