Music: Andy’s Cheesy Playlist!
Andy came down to visit again so got him to work straight away! Now the ADAHRS and GMU mounts are in the units can be installed and the Pitot system can start to be installed. The aircraft was also rigged to to check for fitting and alignment which will allow Ian Daniels to sign off that stage.
I ordered some brass screws to secure the ADAHRS unit in place but they were too long so Andy’s first job, correct my mistake and cut 10mm off!
Getting Andy straight down to business.
A pilot hole (drilled by a Pilot!) for the OAT was opened up from below – I’m sure it could have been done from above but it got Andy on the crawler board 🙂
I sat the mounts quite a way back in the fuselage to keep them away from any EMI but it made securing quite tricky. A job for Andy!
The ADAHRS…
and GMU units installed.
The Pitot system pipes need to be installed so holes are drilled and grommets will be fitted to support the pipes and prevent chaffing.
One of the sign off stages is to check that the wings fit! Ian Daniels guiding the process of attaching the wings for checking.
Wings on and she starts to look more like an aeroplane!
Full flaps!
