Over the past few days, I managed to finish the installation of the wing root fairings. The gap seals are installed & look good. Ideally, I would have liked to have eliminated the need for the seals, but the parts provided by Vans left too wide of a gap at the spar. In the end, it all worked out.
I cut the required 45-degree angle on the fuel tank venting tubes & installed those. The wing walk pads are installed & tacked in place to the upper spar, left & right. All wing root fairings, seals & hardware are back on the shelves until after the final DAR inspection.
Also installed the two-shoulder harness attachment cables to the fuselage bulkhead. Found out that Crow Safety sent me the wrong belts. I need the “Y” system single-point shoulder belt attachment. They mistakenly sent the straight individual mount type. A quick call to their facility got things squared away & the correct shoulder harness belts will be in next week.
