Fuselage March 2008 Updates March 09, 2008 More Wiring & Fuel Lines.... - 6.0 hrs Wiring is now complete except to finalize the PTT switch in the stick grips. The wires are run throught the wing spar but still need to be run up the sticks. Finally came up with the final wiring on the elevator trim and cleaned up the drop down panel. Tested and had to reverse the switch position after talking to Jon B. Jon B came by and helped me figure out another way to work with the fuel lines. Even with my new drop down hard lines the area is still just to cramped. Its times like this I wish I was going with a carburator. Anyway I'm not so gotta get er done! We removed the braided lines and used hard lines from the valve out to the sides of the first braces. This will allow a connection that is easy to make up just behind the cover panels. Still looks like the braided lines are going to be a challenge but should be better. This website was built to document my work in compliance with the FAA requirements needed to certify my aircraft.
