Fuselage May 2007 Updates May 31, 2007 Install Brake Pedals - 2 hr John Dearman was going to help me move the wings from storage to the garage. I wish I could put them at the hangar but with the canopy still sitting in the crate it would be too tight. He was running late so I ran over to the hangar to work on the rudder pedals again. Still can't find the correct bolts for the lower master cylinder connection so I decided to install without them for now. I can't drill the bottom hole in the pedal until it is in place anyway to get the proper brake pedal angle. Anyway I thought I was never going to be able to get them back in. With the NACA vents in place it just seemed like there was not any angle to fit them back in. I finally got it to work and here they are. Next I took measurements for the flex fuel lines that I will pick up tomorrow. John gave me a call so I broke from this to go move the wings. They are in the garage all safe and sound now.
