Top of the aileron pushrod as it goes up into the wing to connect to the two fittings that are ganged together to move the ailerons.

Mark loading up the Soaring Gull as he gets ready to continue on to Oshkosh. This is a nice glass cockpit display. Note the chute in front.

Mark finalizing the packing. The plane is smaller than the Odyssey and is packed full. This is a good shot of the cowling.

One of the D-cell straps that go on the front of the wing.

Cutting the hole for the chute departure if ever needed. I didn't have the courage to cut into the lovely nose, so Mark got it going.

Another shot of me struggling to make a nice hole with the aviation snips.

Finally, the chute is in! After months of wondering how to get it in, Mark got it organized and in the proper location.

Looking forward at the chute in position.

This big, gaping hole is where the rocket exits, at the left (black tube) and the chute is pulled out through the big hole by the rocket.
