Feb 08, 2024 20 Floorboards, brake lines, elevator trim, misc Category: Fuselage
Good 3 days with lots of odds and ends:

Floorboards nearly complete. Created poster board templates for all 5 boards and the back wall of the baggage compartment. Templates worked great for final fitment and marking screw location. Used #10 floating nutplates with stainless screws for all attachment points. Ordered aluminum sheets from Wicks: .032 to replace incorrectly cut board #2, and .025 for the baggage compartment rear wall and possibly for guards over the rudder and flap cables.

Elevator Trim: Finished adjusting the elevator trim mechanism. Need to research if turnbuckle(s) are needed for future tension adjustments then final Nico the cables.

Brake lines: ordered flexible hoses from Pegasus Racing for the final connection to the brake pedals. Last task will be to attach the parking brake actuator cable and decide where to mount in the cockpit.

Interior: Great call with Abby from Flight Line Interiors in WInd Lake, WI. Will plan to drop seat frames off and let them do the rest.
