Dec 17, 2021     Ordered the firewall forward kit. - (3 hours) Category: Logistics
I ordered the firewall forward kit after determining what pieces I already had. I already had the oil cooler, engine baffles, and alternator.
This was added to my existing finishing kit order without requiring an additional deposit.
 
Dec 14, 2021     Visited Van's, ordered finishing kit - (1 hour)       Category: Logistics
Visited the Van's counter, Jake helped me order the finishing kit.

We talked about scheduling a factory tour and demo flight. I may wait until the weather gets a bit nicer before I do that.

I learned a little bit about my engine. I was a bit confused about my data tag just saying O-320. It turns out that Lycoming designated that as the O-320-A1A after it was manufactured.

I also learned that once you register your project with Van's, you have access to .pdf versions of the drawings and build manuals on their website. All you need to do is register for a website account and add an aircraft.
