Brief Description: Luggage area taping

Trimmed, all OK. Result far exceeded my expectations, far, far easier than rupturing myself doing it with the fus the right side up. Cut up some planks for the strake leading edges, all funny angles to go around the curve. Tried slicing up some slivers of 1/4" Last-a-foam with the aim of bunging them in the strake curve grooves. Might work. Cut up a bolt, cut a slot in the ends, and inserted into the fuel drain points with teflon tape. 7.8C in the shed, I'm out of here...

fuel probe cables, and new spar taping
