The plane's interior will be painted
later this week, so a few students spent the day scuffling and
scrubbing the cockpit clean. And that includes the tight spots, too!
While work was being done inside the
cockpit, the canopy was detached and the epoxy resin on the
fiberglass was sanded down.
The vertical stabilizer skins were
riveted on to the skeleton assembly, completing that section. The
group then moved on to rudder construction and began some deburring
and match-drilling. Spar caps were positioned and riveted onto the
main spar component.
The engine group worked on attaching
the fuel return assembly and cleaning up some pieces with acetone.
Additionally, some work was done on the spinner assembly.
Specifically, the spinner was trimmed and sanded, while the pitot
tube was installed.
