Jeff Mitchell - Experimental Aircraft Builder's Log

Jeff Mitchell's RV8 project


Date: 3-28-2010
Number of Hours: 4.30
Manual Reference: 8-67
Brief Description: Front Upper Skins - Part 3.

I made a cardboard template of the mounting flange of the SV-1 NACA vents so I could mark and remove the primer on the fuselage side skin for better adhesion. I mixed up a small batch of tank sealant and applied it to the flange and installed the vent.

Vent painted and template made

Surface scuffed and cleaned

SV-1 NACA vent installed
