Brief Description:  Rewired all previously installed wiring in fuselag

In reviewing all the wiring I did a couple years ago, I realized a potential for chafing and many of the electrical terminals were not crimped satisfactorily. I purchased the expensive, but correct terminal crimpers and enclosed all wiring in the fuselage in plastic conduit...especially where the wires and/or antenna leads pass through rubber clamps or grommets. I also removed all zip-ties which I previously used to secure wires into bundles. After installing the plastic conduit, I secured with commercial zip-ties and metal/rubber clamps. Additionally, I removed all plastic clamps as I have learned they get brittle and fail over time. Overall, the wiring is neater, will not chaff, and all the terminals should be good.
