Project: BuckRV-8     -     Entry

Jun 14, 2009 4.4 Wiring conduit; Elevator stop; Misc. Category: Fuselage
Today was supposed to be the big day when I mounted the tail, but I found some more things to take care of first -- lots of miscellaneous projects:

1. RTVed the ends of the wiring conduit in the aft fuselage, much like I did in the wings.

2. Attached the elevator stop to the aft fuselage deck. Torqued nuts to final value.

3. Torqued tailwheel attach nut to final value.

4. Fabricated a spacer plate for my new rear cockpit power outlet. (I recently discovered Powerlet sockets, which are much higher quality that a standard "cigarette lighter" outlet. They are a smaller diameter unit, however, so I had to create a plate to cover the slightly oversize hole in the bulkhead where it'll be mounted.) Photos tomorrow. [Superseded.]

5. Engineered an attachment method for the static line as it passes the strobe power pack.
