Title: Prep wing skin. Prep pitot.
Helped my In-laws move last week. Between that and the Covid-19 train wreck, I haven't been working on the plane much in the last week or so. Thanks to the pandemic, pretty much everybody in ICT is looking at furloughs and massive economic impacts, not to mention that we're now looking at home lockdowns etc. Given the magnitude of this disaster, I don't know when I'll be able to order the fuse, but I'm going to push fwd with what I can do with the stuff I've already got. UofA cancelled face to face classes and went 100% online while Holly was home on spring break, so she's not going back to AZ any time soon. We're going to have to make a trip to AZ probably in April to get her car and move her out of her apartment, but she's moved back into her old room permanently for now. RJ is working extra hours at Dillons as everybody is panic buying random stuff. You walk in there and it looks freaking apocalyptic. Kriya has also had the flu (the puking kind, not the Covid-19 kind). Anyway, I finally got back to this and edge finished the lower outbd left wing skin, trial fit, on and off a bunch while designing the pitot mast mount. Decided to incorporate an angle that ties into the rib as well as the spar flange so hopefully the mount will be a little more robust. Also cut down the mast so that the Garmin tube will set about 5.5 inches below the wing. Garmin range is 4-10" below the wing, and I was shooting for about 6 inches, but I got one of the holes off center and ended up cutting off another .5 inches to get new holes. Will work well and doesn't look as goofy as a super long mast dangling down there.
