Oct-Dec 98.


22-Oct-98: Instrument panel with sub-panel & ventilator mountings. Mounting the sub-panel makes it a lot easier to install the switches & start the wiring task.



31-Oct-98: Wing tip showing nutplates & tip rib. The #4 screws & nutplate kit from Cleaveland Tool was used to make the tips removable to service the strobe power supplies & landing/taxi lights.



31-Oct-98: Testing the fuel tanks for leaks after installing level senders. The balloons stayed inflated for a couple of weeks.



26-Nov-98: The right step, cleko'd in place. The steel flange required some bending to match the fuselage contours.



26-Nov-98: One of the Naca vents, RTV'd & cleko'd. The standard Van's vent kit, including plastic eyeball vents, was used.



30-Dec-98: RST Audio Panel kit completed & tested. Documentation is pretty good. Assembly fairly straight forward. It works as advertised.
