Day 14 & Day 15 - April 18, 2015 & April 25, 2015

During the past two sessions, many tasks have been accomplished on TF4.  The main center of attention is the side skins and longerons, as the fuselage is starting to look like a plane!  The arm rests and bulkhead side channels were installed and the side skins were temporarily installed for match drilling and fitting. 

 

The forward upper fuselage was also worked on.  This included the completion of the canopy ribs, and the antenna shelf was riveted to the upper firewall.  The oil tank side brackets were assembled to the battery and oil reservoir braces.  The assembly is being prepared for rivets. 

 

 

The map box was deburred and prepared, and the rudder pedal brake lines had some fittings installed. 

 

 

Stay tuned for more next week.
