John, you should fit the wings and flap drive tube before the top goes on
the fuselage. 10 times less hassle. Believe.
Can't really believe any more than 20 amps is needed. We run our horizon
---From the alternator direct using a transformer. Turns out the normal AC
---From the engine in cruise is about 400 Hz, so who needs an inverter? Vac
pumps are not noted for reliability so I would use a venturi anyway. More
efficient than a pump which must absorb at least a horse power?
