*sound of a starter's gun* "And he's off!"  Glad you're having fun.

Having fun would be an understatement....well there is that getting the holes aligned on the bottom aft skin and the flanges on the rudder attach bulkhead. It was however, a little easier to line up than on my 7 with the tailwheel hardware...thought I was going to have to use a bigger hammer on the 7 
Today is going to be a day of final drilling, forward bulkhead brace, bellcrank angles, aft deck........sounds like fun to me

Hey Todd, I wish it were you building rather than me and getting ready to sit in it and make airplane noises. Down to the basement I go with a couple of new #40's, ear protection and air drill in hand!! |

All in time. My wife still says I am going to go orphan the children every time I mention the word flying.

Roof liner and close out rings
another view
Similiar Black Painted Metal backing strips will close off the sides and back of the roof liner material once the cabin is riveted to the fuse
On with the build...

Striped and numbered
Yesterday we got someone out to layout all the stripes. It was quite interesting to see a pro at work. Making sure the two sides are the same is also difficult. Then we masked and covered the whole AC and painted it. Happy with the outcome

Hi Ernst, yes soon!
We have upholstery and the left side of the instrument panel to do.
And the wing tips need the final coats of paint.
