I figured out the screw was not twisted off. There is an anti-tamper plug that's inserted. Just had to drill it out. I found a 45 degree attachment for my drill and was able to drill out the plug. ... |

Thanks.

I'm going to get a used solenoid from a local used bike shop here in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Should have it by Tuesday or Wednesday. Only going to cost $25. That's more like it. |

Came across a BD5 in the basement of the museum. It was next to other experimental aircrafts. Not sure if the group was aware of this. I will send some pictures once I get them off of the camera. |

Talldude,
Check out Pulse 343 for sale. The owner, Chip, says he's 6-2 and fits comfortable in the cockpit. But you're still more than welcomed to come by and sit in mine.
