(10-23 step 3):
… and tonight we finished up the riveting on the tailcone
(yea!!) The aft top skin is now permanently installed! The
foreward top skin will be installed when the tailcone is attached to
the fuselage… some day [sigh]
|
(10-24 step 3): There
are a few steps left on the tailcone. BUT, the only one we're
doing now is attaching the rear shoulder harness anchors. So, I
climbed up inside the tailcone again, installed the hardware, tightened
& torqued them, and then marked them with paint for inspection
purposes later.
|
So
here it is… As mentioned, we're putting off a few
things, namely installing the battery/bellcrank mount (until we
finalize a dual-battery modification), battery, master relay, and
bellcrank (all dependent upon the mod). So we are deeming the
tailcone is done!
