Brief Description:  Comm antennas; cockpit lighting

Another milestone! Tonight was the first night I've worked on the airplane in a heated hangar since 2003. It's wonderful being able to crank up the thermostat and work in shirtsleeves.

I fabricated the pair of back-plates for the two comm antennas, and began figuring out where I'll be mounting the antennas.

I also located and drilled the holes for the two mini map lights that will shine on the throttle quadrant and right-side switch panel. These will reside on the forward sides of the vertical channel caps, way up high, under the top longerons.
