Brief Description:  More tail wiring...

It seems like I'm not putting much time on the airplane, but most of my time, which I do not log is spent researching the wiring stuff. I am just starting to get a handle on how the whole enchilada goes toghether. I have to admit that it has been hard to make some of these decisions as they feel kind of permenant - which really isn't completely true, but certainly once you start down the wrong road alot of time gets wasted.

Anyway.
Pulled the 6 wires through the tail cone conduit. I had a false start on the first attempt this morning - cut the 5 22awg wires going to the elev trim servo too short - rats. 2nd attempt went splendid. I also pulled another fishing line through with the wires incase I need to add another wire for something down the road. The wires I have are for the tail position light (18awg) and 5 wires for the MAC trim servor (22awg).
Opened up a hole on one of the tailcone bulkheads to put in a snap bushing for routing of the coax from the ELT antenna to the ELT unit.
