Brief Description:  Front deck - 05

After completing the wx stripping flanges I started to assemble the deck. The plans have you move the deck to the aircraft in three pieces. The two side assemblies get clecoed to the firewall and the side of the aircraft. Then the center section is clecoed between them. I installed the instrument panel to check the fit and there is a small misalignment somewhere. The instrument panel sits about an 1/8th" too high.

I will investigate tomorrow, but I think I have room on the side of the panel to shave a little off. It is hard to see, but in the third photo you can see where the panel sits on the side of the aircraft. I think I can take a small amount off on each side at that location. That will bring the panel down.
