Brief Description:  Avionics access door, rear cockpit map light

I managed to get a little time in the workshop, despite the persistent, bitter cold.

I finished trimming, filing, and sanding the edge of the opening in the bulkhead for the avionics access door. Next, I'll install the platenuts. Note: I discovered that there's a brace that goes between the top of the bulkhead and the firewall. I'll have to install this somehow. It might require that I install a doubler plate along the top edge of the door opening, so I will NOT put a platenut at the top center of the door.

I also finished opening up the hole for the map-light switch in the rear cockpit. (Rectangular switch-holes -- whose brilliant idea was it to put a rectangular switch in there, anyway?) ;-) Well, it'll look nice. That's all that matters. No one will ever need to know how much time it took me.
