Brief Description: Secured the Alternator Field Wire FWF
Not much electrically left FWF. Yea!! I used lacing chord and secured the red Alternator field wire along its route to the firewall. Used the Odyssey battery charger to top off the PC680. It was at 12.45 volts and ended at 12.75. That did not take long. Those batteries really hold their charge. Also did one more difficult job. I left out riveting the bottom skin to the firewall for 10 rivets midway across the bottom, between the two nose gear support struts. I don't know why. Removed the exhaust supports, the lower cowl support and with much difficulty managed to rivet those dozen holes. It took some ingenuity. The bottom tube of the engine mount that runs across the bottom of the firewall was in the way all the time. Did I say having the right tools was a blessing. Bucking bars are included in that..... Anyways, that nagging job has been completed. Now I have to look at my pictures to see which exhaust support was on top or inside of the structure before I tighten it up..... again.
Red wire is field wire. Goes to VPX.
Lacing chord along its route secures it to the Alternator wire.
Turns up at the firewall and goes to the through-the-firewall fitting above.
