It always takes more time of what one thinks, but at the fuselage is now ready to cover.
The avionic has been installed and a preliminary pitot/static system test showed that everything is in order.
The radio can be covered by a removable glove box door identical to the one on the right for aircraft static display. Here are some details of the wiring.
The battery has been installed behind the baggage container to improve the balance.
The landing gears, brakes and bungee cords are also in place.
Even if I don’t plan to do any night flying. I installed a military style light in the cockpit.
and finally a couple of pictures of the fuselage ready to cover.
The Poly-fiber fabric and all the chemicals and tools were delivered, so the next step is setting up the paint booth in the hangar. I bought an external garage 10 x 20 ft from Costco that seems to be the cheapest solution.
