Brief Description: Install Prop, Work on fairing, cowling, engine
Yesterday I sprayed the windscreen fairing with SEM High Build Primer. Today sanded the fairing with 400 and 600 grit paper. The touchup was needed because I did some repair work on the edges of the fairing. Put the last coat of epoxy/West System 410 mix on the lower cowling. Install the prop. I was trying to find an answer to how to clock the prop and finally settled on the following (VANS Ken thought this would work): With the t/c mark at 12 o’clock I bolted her down in the 2/8 o’clock position when facing the airplane. This way, when shutting down the engine, the prop will end up in the 10/4 o’clock position for hand propping. This will be relatively easy to change if needed.
