Wondering if Leonard is well? I ask this question, because having ordered plans a couple of weeks ago, and not hearing any response, via email or telephone, got me concerned somethings messed up.

As far as I know he is ok, I stopped by his house two weeks ago and he was looking really well and actually working on a plane. in the hanger. He was showing me the plane he was building, working on the wings. I got a prop hub from him for my Betterhalf I am building.

Ok, I just got off the phone with him, He was driving to the post office to mail out three sets of plans and on his talking on his Bluetooth, I wanted to talk to him about the wing struts on the LEXL about making them a V-connection to give more room in front, similar to a CUB and a KitFox. he said I would have to redesign the compression cross members in the wing to take the addition forces which would be introduced by doing that, and I would add more weight to the plane, He did do that on the Cabin Eagle but not advised in the LEXL.
He said tell everyone he is still kicking and Hello...

Great! Glad to hear he is well, and hopefully one of those sets of plans is coming my way.
