Brief Description:  Sec 38-8 & 38-9 & 38-10 all steps

Finished off Sec 38. Began with the rudder cable fairings on the tailcone. when I installed them I installed then INSIDE of the skin, they looked great, however someone pointed out that I might have an interference problem when it came time to install the rudder cable.... They were right..... so, I drilled off the fairings and moved them to the outside of th skin, I figure I can smooth them w/ Bondo and accompliish the appearance objective. All this added time to this step. I enlisted Torey to scooch back into the tailcone and help in threading the cables through the snap bushings. THANKS Torey! (I never would have fit back there myself!) the rest was pretty straight forward, I was surprised at how long the whole thing took today. I didn't make the final connection to the rudder pedals, as I'm not happy with the way the links that I fabed turned out, so I'll need to come back and make that last connection when I get some new 4130 chromolly. The rudder cable guides bind the cable fairly tight, it moves, but with some resistance, Not sure if this is OK, may have to open -up the guide holes somewhat.
