Hey Guys,

I’m pretty much done with the micro finishing of the top forward nose, the wheel pants, and the strake lower leading edges.  What’s left to micro finish you ask? Well, that would be the outboard underside of the wings and some final spot touchups on the canard. 

To be fair, I am currently in the process of working the final fit, finish and integration of the aft nose/avionics cover with the canopy front skirt.

I am also happy to report that the engine is off the bird and I’ve started the process of making and installing the CS spar heat shields, and the forward heat shields in the wing roots.  Once these are complete, I will then move on to cut and install the Titanium firewall.

As a point of note, I am getting married at the end of this month, so my build activities will be minimal during all of May… maybe an hour or two a day tops.
