Dec 06, 2022     Rear Fuselage Priming       Category: Fuselage
Good news, I finally received the long awaited fuel lines that were back ordered and I am now finishing up the last auxiliary tank. I need to pressure/ leak check then I can install it and finish the left wing. Things are getting tight in the garage so being able to put the left wing away in its cradle will free up some work space.
I started prepping and spraying a 2 part epoxy primer on the fuselage parts. Just like the wings, the prep work is taking longer than the actual building. Luckily I am enjoying the process and am not in a rush. I am about to rivet the lower rear fuselage skins but I had to send a few questions to tech support before I continue. Once the skins are on there is going to be a lot less access so I want to make sure I am not missing anything. The rear tie down has 8 rivet holes and the instructions only had me rivet 5 of the holes. I dont want to rivet the other three just to have to drill them out later on down the road. Thats all for now.
