Brief Description:  Fiting the Fuselage Lift Side Fabric

Mounted the ground wire from the plug to the case of the beacon light.

Removed the turtle back from the fuselage to allow clearance for the fabric to be laid over the longeron on the left side. Did a final adjustment to the plywood side for the left side of the cockpit. Secured the top left of the plywood to the frame with a 1024 by 5/8 screw. Secured the top right end of the plywood with a 1024 by 1/2 screw. Used the dremel tool to remove 1/4 inch from the inside edge of the wing stub leading edge to provide clearence for the plywood and fabric. Laid out the left side fabric along the fuselage and clipped it in place along the top. Measured out the fabric along the wing stub and cut away the excess. Cut the fabric at the step brace, and the front and rear lift cable brackets to allow the fabric to lay flat along the plywood side. Cut slots along the top to allow the fabric to be rapped around the longeron for the full length of the fuselage. Start gluing the fabric to the longerons during the next work day.
