Brief Description:  Installed nutplates

I sanded the transition area on the left wheel pant and the fairing released—no problem. I had a couple of low spots, so I mixed up some micro and applied to these areas. After curing, I again sanded the transition area. It will still need a little more finish work before shooting sanding primer. I laid out some glass strips on the inside of the pants where the fairing will attach. After this cured, I drilled the attach holes to #27, then used a nutplate jig to drill holes for attaching nutplates. I countersunk these holes and riveted the nutplates to the pants using my squeezer.
