| Greetings all,
|
| Just wanted to report that A-245 now looks more like an airplane than a
| canoe.
|
| After months of prep work, with the help of a few friends we bonded on my
top
| this morning. All went well and it looks like a good fit. Mr. Plumbob and
Mr.
| Level report all is well, straight and true. We used about 480 grams of
| Redux, with about 80 grams or so of waste.
|
| So, now, my status is:
|
| Wings, ailerons, flaps, antiservo tabs, and rudder ready to start filling
and
| finish. Wingtip lights ready for installation, fuselage top is bonded on,
| fuselage is up on it's gear, both sticks are wired for PTT, pilot and
copilot
| headphone jacks are installed, flap wiring and switch are in, trim wiring
and
| switch are installed, center console cutdown is completed, cockpit and
baggage
| bay area are painted, wing and tail tiedowns installed, instrument panel
is cut
| and drilled and ready for instruments, transponder and Com antennas and
coax
| installed, strobe power supply, power wires and high tension feed lines
are
| installed, overhead console complete except for wiring, all panel covers
| complete, rudder cables installed, and custom floor mats are on the way.
|
| Thanks to all for your input with special thanks to Graham for his input
on
| the splash flange for the rear bulkhead. Now, I hope I can still get
| cowls...........
