Title: GSA 28 Bracket, Questions, and fuel and brake lines.
Prepared a list of questions for Brian's visit. Used Brian's long reach yoke to squeeze the final four rivets to attach the GSA 28 Pitch Servo bracket. Discussed my list of questions with Brian including: - Pitot/Static/AOA tubing, static ports, routing, testing. I'm going to redo my static ports with ones from showplanes with and additional 0.032 spacer - Firewall mount oil cooler questions. Got my questions answered. Still have to decide whether to use baffle or firewall mount. - Wire conduit routing from panel to aft fuselage. - Lycoming test report and Avstar vs AFP fuel injection. Close enough. I plan to call Don at AFP - Master Cylinder Mounting. Okay? I'm still thinking about adding structure. - Front fuselage rivets. - Engine installation and hoist. Install mount first and then finish firewall penetrations where practical. Then install engine. - Starter Contactor. Showed him the one I took apart. Started working on fuel lines. Made up one fuel line and it didn't fit, but I learned a lot. Made a second fuel line that fits! Learned that the small tubing cutter works great and leaves a cleaner end. Still need to figure out a better way to debug the tubing after cutting it. Considered using the TS flightlines fuel and/or brake line kits and how parts I fabricate could work with the kit parts. Considered options on how to split the tubing from the valve to the wing into two parts to make it easier to fabricate and install. Decided to proceed with making the parts. I can always change to buying parts.
