Jun 12, 2007     Throttle cable anchor (first try) - (2.4 hours)       Category: Fuselage
I have just GOT to stop working on the airplane at the end of a long day, when I'm already tired. For the second time in a month, I wasted almost a whole work period. Tonight, I fabricated the F-864E Cable Anchor, and I built it backwards. Can you spot the problem in the photo below? That dotted line on the drawing became a solid line in my tired mind. That's what I get for trying to work a 20-hour day. I'll reorder some more aluminum angle tomorrow.

On a more positive note, I successfully removed the "trim area" at the front of the F-864BPP Throttle Quadrant Cover. It would be hard to screw that up, since it's pre-notched.
