Project Update

Hey Guys, 

I’m currently WELL into the final micro-finishing stage of this project, with really only the outboard underside of the wings and the top of the nose forward of the canard that remains to be done (ok, and the wheel pants). 

I set the canopy into its final position which allowed me to complete the final canopy latch install.  With that, I am finishing the final fit and finish of both the aft nose/avionics cover and nose hatch door onto the nose.

I have still yet to pull the engine off the bird, but that will be coming soon.  At which point I’ll finish making/installing the forward heat shields in the wing roots, and then move on to cut and install the Titanium firewall.
