Apr 10, 2020     Avionics rack construction - (4.1 hours)       Category: Avionics
1. Continued fabricating the avionics rack. Began by clamping the two shelves together and match-drilling the standoff holes so they will match perfectly. Installed the standoffs and test-fit all the components so verify fit. (I'm glad I did this, because I actually had to move the Com radio about 1/32" to ensure clearance from one of the standoffs.) Verified all the D-sub and coax connectors will have adequate room. Continued working on the exact method this rack will be mounted into the airplane. Cut out stiffeners from stock angle. These will be riveted to the underside of the shelves. Marked, match-drilled, deburred and countersunk both the shelves for the stiffeners.

2. Continued constructing the mount for the GEA-24 that will be located in the forward avionics hellhole.
