Brief Description: More cowling trimming and fitting
After a bad week last week, I felt a little bit better this week, but still couldn't do much at the hangar and limited my work sessions to about an hour.
I started on the horizontal sides of the cowling, first marking a line and then sanding and trimming down to it and repeating the process. It's a little bit like herding cats because there are so many areas where gaps can open when you think you have one closed.
But I got it pretty good -- not Bronze Lindy good -- but pretty good. Then I taped everything down and marked rivet lines for the two vertical aft sections. The spacing of the rivets didn't quite work out to perfect in consideration of the two ends being 1/4" in from the end of the hinge, but it should look fine.
Next, I'll drill the holes in the bottom cowling for the hinge attach rivets.
