The last week has been divided between the MGB and the ES. Mostly MGB. I've been chasing a faster than normal idle on the MGB for a week, and finally today figured it out. The throttle butterfly valves were out of center by a very small margin, allowing a bit too much air flow at full idle. Finally got the idle down to normal limits, so that's done.
On the ES, I've not been totally idle. In the last three days, I've flipped the wing, re-mounted the aileron and flap, and started the process of reinforcing the leading edge, and finishing the trailing edge. The manual is silent regarding the leading edge, as is Lancair support. So I decided to treat the leading edge joggle as all other leading edges, with a 2-bid reinforcement. Also, the outboard end of the flap to wing gap is a bit wide, so I added some micro, and will sand, re-fit, re-micro, etc.
