Did a bunch of miscellaneous tasks today, most of which relate to avionics (which is why I filed this entry under that category...)
1. Drilled more holes in the under-floor bulkheads and spar, and installed grommets. 2. Ran autopilot servo harness a bit further though the fuselage. 3. Prepped the two magnetometer harnesses for installation. 4. Drilled for nutplates for the right side map pocket. (Most of these nutplates will be in the fuselage, with two in the right vertical channel cap.) 5. Sanded, prepped and primed the channel cap and the map pocket itself. 6. Deburred and prepped the final components of the avionics rack, in preparation for anodizing. 7. Prepped fuselage for installation of both comm antennas.
I also spent some time trying to figure out where and how I'm going to mount the small antenna for the Monroy ATD-300 Traffic Watch unit. It's a stick-type transponder antenna, and it needs to go forward of the wing, on the belly someplace.
