Hey Guys,
Happy New Year!
I spent a fair portion of time during my Christmas mini-vacay pouring over the Feather Light leading edge & strake kit instructions to ensure I knew what the specific tasks were for the strake build. I also went over the plans to fill in or add to any gaps there might be in the strake building plan. Moreover, I rolled all that into a Chapter 21 To-Do task list.
To ensure I incorporated as many optimized methods as possible for building the strakes, I reviewed fellow builders’ sites on the topic, including Dave Berenholtz, Ary Glantz, Mike Beasley and Nate Mullins…. thanks guys!
Again, the nose and aft nose/avionics cover install is fairly close to being finished, and I have now started in earnest my transition to the strake build (Chapter 21). I will concurrently finish up the nose using the glass cure cycles of each to work on the other.
After the strakes the final big airframe assembly will be the winglet/rudder install (Chapter 20).
