Brief Description: Final push

Weighed the plane. It came in at 1138, a bit on the heavy side, but with all my toys, that's to be expected. I guessed 1125, so I'm happy. Then we added brake fluid. Had one leak inside where I didn't tighten one of the lines. Tightened down and cleaned up, and topped of the fluid. Checked the pressure, and checked the brakes. Then I connected the fuel guardian optical fuel level warning. Then I attached the pitot tube, and the OAT probe. Guessed on the wires of the OAT but guessed wrong. I'll fix that next time. Then we calibrated the fuel tanks, by adding 5 gallons at a time, and took a reading at 0, 5, 10, 15 gallons and full. I also did a few things in the EFIS, like set the time, the level pitch and some other minor stuff. Overall, a great day.
