Also making modifications to  the TS3 craft getting a BMW R1100 RT  gearbox bell housing milling it out to fit on to the back end of the engine this will keep the weather out as it was giving some problems to the starter motor . Replacing some nuts and bolts for st-steel  on the rudder fittings  and oil change to lift and thrust engines .   Updating  the exhaust system by putting extra box on .

Mostly using mine  I like winter there's generally more calm weather, less sun to drive the wind. Just need a big wooly hat!

SEVTEC and "Curvey" do not belong in the same utterance.

I’m on with a major facelift for Kermit.
It seems to perform okay but is a bit aesthetically challenged, and the green is very GREEN.
Trying to make it look a bit more curvy.
I’ll post pics when I’m a bit more finished.
