I started a trial fitup of the components of the center fuselage. Fabricated the rudder pedal bearing block plates and assembled the rudder torque tubes and pedals. The bearing block ID's seem to be correct as is so no reaming will be necessary. Modified the flap handle support for the stabilizer bungee per the instructions and mod kit sent by Rans. Started the fuselage side wall prefit in preparation for polishing and deburing the skins and cuting out the NACA vents. Went for a bike ride and dinner with Sharon.
