Brief Description: Brackets for ELT/Strobe Power Supply #4
Spent almost an hour riveting the nutplates (12) onto the 4 brackets. I probably should have riveted them on before installation, but again I was giving priority to the -4 rivets that attach the brackets to the longerons fearing access issues with nutplates already attached. I ended up bucking the the lower ones as the yoke on the squeezer wouldn't fit between the bracket at the side of the fuse - turned out fine but took alittle more time. I actually started looking at my next task which is the battery access door that will be cut into the 'hat shelf' of the rear baggage compartment (pic 3).
Nutplates installed.
Another angle. I need some thicker material to make the mounting plates so I'll defer that until later
I plan to put the access door in the center of this shelf to access the battery.
