Brief Description: cooling ramp, topskin, control rod
Trimmed the cooling ramp so that it will fit into the well.
Installed the new pushrod that goes between the rear stick and front stick. I did not attach it to the front stick because I removed the front stick and will have to shorten it because the infinity grip makes it too long.
Drilled most of the holes on the top of the front skin that attach to the fuselage. I had been concerned earlier that the holes were mismatched between the topskin and firewall as a result of forgetting to put the spacer between the two when the holes were drilled. It turns out that the holes are fine except for the bottom six on the right side.
Tim Sweeney, Stefan King and his friend Jessie came by. We examined the problem of the mismatched holes and together came up with a solution. I will cut the strip of topskin where the hles are misaligned, and move it down to realign the holes. If they holes fail to align, I will make a new strip for that area. The result should be only a small gap in the topskin that can easily be filled in.
