I started off today simply prepping and then laying up 1 ply of BID on the left hinge tab on the nose hatch door.

I did some workshop housekeeping chores, pulled the canard from the rec room in the main house and placed it in the shop, and also did a bit of welding on the instrument panel.

A bit later –after the above layup cured– I got back to work on the nose hatch door install.  Here’s a video recapping all the pertinent points.

Tomorrow I’ll press forward on the nose components.
