On this Sunday, there was high and gusty winds despite being a beautiful day. We couldn't fly safely, hence this became a day break from flight instructing. I took this opportunuity to make little progress on the RV-8 last few things prior to full fuselage final assembly. I did: - Final riveted the external ground power plug on the F824 LH skin - Final riveted the external ground power box to the doubler and F824 skin - Primed, then painted white the offset hinge for external power hatch door - Painted gloss black the tail wheel trunnion. - Finalized the NACA duct "Snake guard", made with PVC rings and aluminum screen. |
