04/02/2009 (3 hours): With my strakes swept forward, their leading edges fall just past the instrument panel. This was too good of a coincidence to pass up. Along the leading edge, just under where the foam blocks will be, I installed electrical channels made of shower curtain rod covers. These are great - wires slide very easily along them. I carefully tucked them inside one another at the joints (where the sweep of the strakes changes), and duct-taped over them wherever there were holes to prevent micro from getting in when the leading edge foam blocks are attached. In each channel I installed two pairs of 16ga wires (one each for NAV and strobe lights), and an antenna wire for the wing COM antenna. If I run into trouble with the strobe disrupting antenna signals I can always move one of the wire pairs, but I'll wait and see before I make any changes. 04/09/2009 (1 hour): Tonight I installed SOME of the leading-edge fairing blocks. I've left two off so I can do any fixes required if the left tank fails its next pressure check. 04-16-2009 (4 hours): The rest of the blocks went on tonight. Fairing into the fuselage was a little tricky but they look like they match, as near as we could tell. The leading edge layup was extended to cover the holes drilled to find the tank leaks.
