Finish Kit Update April 2011 Updates April 17, 2011 Final Checks for Engine Start ..... - 6.0 hrs This weekend was to get the final things done for engine start. Go over the engine again. Install the windscreen and tape it down. Clean up the hangar. First thing was to install and duct tape the windscreen in place. I used clamps to hold it tight against the roll bar until I got the tape in place. Next I added fuel to the right wing tank. Powered up the EFIS and brought up the engine screen. For the run test this will be the only thing I need to focus on. Next I pulled the plane out and started cleaning up the hangar. This website was built to document my work in compliance with the FAA requirements needed to certify my aircraft. My experiences and comments are by no means to be considered as instructions on how to build any aircraft.
