Loose ends
Amid the craziness of this week and next, I made it out to the hangar for a couple hours tonight. Worked on a couple of punch-list items. First, I’d brought the electrical toolbox, so I was able to extract the old sockets from the taillight molex shell, and insert the new ones. Then, install the taillight to the rudder and test both nav & strobe functions.
Safety-wired the pitch trim hingepin in place.
Dimpled the screw holes on the bottom fuselage skin, that overlap onto the wing; these would be impossible to dimple after the wings are installed.
Measured for and fabricated a closure plate for the forward part of the nosegear slot in the bottom cowling. I forgot to bring any scotchbrite to the hangar though, so didn’t get it primed or nutplates attached, though all the drilling/deburring/countersinking is complete.
