Brief Description:  Baffle - air inlet

Finished manufacturing the left and right conical air inlet pieces. Drilled, dimpled, alumipreped, alodined and clecoed them together. Because they will be riveted as "one" unit, I left all the pieces clecoed and removed them as one unit to make sure they come off easy....no problem. I added another nut plate and screw at the base of the left baffle where I split it for a better fit around the prop governor. As planned, it made that baffle more solid. I decided not to rivet the unit together until I get the upper baffles trimmed back. I will be taking the baffles off many times to trim and de-burr and not being riveted will allow me to get them off/on quicker. Once the baffles are trimmed all will be riveted. I took a little time today to buff out the installation scratches in the aluminum pieces and refresh the alodine in those areas.
