Left Wingtip Fitting

Posted on July 4, 2013October 26, 2013 by Jared Yates

Today I finished fitting the left wing tip. That involved installing the strobe power supply and the left aileron, then drilling with the hole duplicator strap. I countersunk the holes, which will also have special countersunk washers to help distribute the load on the relatively vulnerable fiberglass. I also sprayed flat black paint on the windshield support angles, the instrument panel access hatch, and the portions of the boot cowl that will be visible from the interior. The cargo doors are finished, so I mounted them.

it was a relief to see that the stripes and letters lined up with each other.
