Brief Description:  Rear throttle quadrant install #5

More fitting of the pushrod that attaches the front and rear throttle. What a pain taking stuff on and off to incrementally get it where it needs to be. I have alittle more finished to do, but it's getting close. Also, I had to get inside the airplane to hook up the rear throttle and that was a thrill, although I was on my knees where the back seat would go - oh well! I match drilled the nylon friction plates that rivet on each side of the rear throttle lever. I need to dimple them but I don't have anything that will do the job (squeezers wont fit and my pop rivet dimpler is #40), but my buddy Greg has a #30 pop rivet dimpler that he's going to loan me! - Thanks Greg!
