(continued…)
While I was pushing the plane back in its parking spot I noticed a little sound from the engine area… I pause to listen. Nothing. I continued to push and heard it again! Wait a minute… no… No… NOOO!
Out comes a little bird. I pulled the whole cowling off to expose another bird and a nest. Great… Cancel the flight. Everything was going perfect so far.
The Plan B… 8 hours of driving! Not good. Time to go shopping. Going to pickup cowling plugs, and measure for the new cover. No more delay.
