Sounds great - please share your expertise in lowering the AB-577 in very
windy condx, solo.  Yes, it's been very windy here.

To address other comments, I assure you my C3S is riveted to spec, although
I can't say exactly how many rivets per joint.  I just don't remember after
10 years and the manual doesn't say.

Have appreciated all the comments.

Kudos to Mark N5WEB of Force12 for offering to send a bunch of rivets.
