Nov 06, 2008     Strobe pack; static line; switch panel angle - (2.0 hours) Category: Fuselage
I completed the installation of the strobe unit mount underneath the aft baggage compartment. Once the wiring and other installations in the aft fuselage are complete, the strobe pack will just screw right on.

Next, I ran the static line from the T-connector in the aft fuselage up to the vicinity of the instrument panel. I had originally thought I would route it along the bottom of the upper longeron, but I found a way to do it under the floor that will be less obtrusive and will not require going through or around the instrument panel sides. The line will be secured along its length with a combination of Adel clamps and zip ties.

Finally, I clecoed an attach angle to the fuselage that was once destined to support the right-hand switch panel. For me, since it will be covered by a custom angled switch panel, it will support a couple of Adel clamps and a large wire bundle.
