Because I need to get the aft top skin on to do the canopy and since I need to do that in the summer when it's warm (cold and plexiglass work don't mix), I need to get everything done back there before I put the top on and make it 3 times as hard to work on. I started running conduit today - what a pain! I drille the 3/4 holes in the aft bulkheads and used the extisting one that go through the rear spar carry through and center section. Since the holes are designed to retain the conduit between the ribs in the plastic it is hard to feed it through, literally can take hours to run the full length of the airplane, but it is an elegant installation once it's done. I also trimmed the static line and ran it through the newly acquired grommets in the aft fuselage. I need to reseach how guys attach it to their longerons, but in the mean time, I have plenty of conduit to pull - urgh!
Ran this bird's nest of static line through the bulkheads and roughly trimmed it to length.
Here's the conduit running fwd through the center section
