It seems that there is a Santa Claus! My airplane is back together after about
3 months of mod 78 work. I have attached a picture. I have a three day trip
tomorrow,
so the first flight should be on Monday.
The aileron quick connects seem to be clear of everything. The CS08 brackets
clear
everything. I am not sure if the flush screws were definitely needed, but
the extra margin helps. It certainly helps in installing the wings. I was able
to get them on the airplane by myself, which is a good sign.
The angles all seem correct, as far as I can tell. Just a few more parts left
(wheel
fairing) and that will make the test flight possible. I ran the engine today
and it ran perfectly.
I'm planning a simple flight test. Maneuvers, stalls and a wind-up turn to at
least
3 Gs. After that, pull the wings once again and inspect.
I also need to reprogram the airspeed limitations in the Dynon Skyview. Does
anyone
know what they are? Vmo is 127 knotrs, I think. Anyone know what maneuvering
speed is? Top of the yellow?
Our long national nightmare i almost over!
