Brief Description:  Preparation for strake top skins, and some T-hatti

Taped starboard leading edge to inner skin.

Installed port leading edge with flox, clamped with cleco along the bottom, and drywall screws at the top.

Used a scrap bit of thin carbon fibre, about 2" wide and 6" long, with one end rounded off as a trowel to apply flox in the gaps between the strake rib noses and the leading edges. [Timewarp: This has become my favorite tool! Is much easier to spread micro/flox with for everything, using the short square end like the usual credit card, and the long edge for spreading slurry on big bits of foam. Easy on the hand, and easy to clean.]

2 x 4oz tape along tops ofTTE, back over flox corner onto the pour foam.

Hot glued some urethane foam inboard of R57 starboard side and trimmed to shape. taped over this with 2 x 4oz.

1 x 4oz over starboard spar end. This will be the aft wall of the smoke oil tank.

2 X 4oz flange along fuselage side between DAB and the spar.

2 x UND over outboard edge of port lower skin, layup #3, missing until now.
