Ok, so I promised to show the hangar chaos. It's not as bad as it looks; I can work on each section without bumping into anything else. But I'm about ready to dimple and rivet the bottom skins of the mid-fuselage, finish assembling the forward fuselage, close the tail cone, and both wing spars are done. What I'm really waiting for is the wiring harnesses so I can route them through the structure while it's all still open. Once I get that, it'll resolve pretty quickly into one fuselage and two wings.



The audio stuff is my bass practice rig (what better to do while waiting for primer to dry?) and the PA we will be using at the airport open house this weekend.

I don't have the doors finished like Bill, but I just finished the cabin cover interior a few days after him.



Aerosport Products Overhead, Map lights and air vents from SteinAir, general work lighting from Vans, Door Strut brackets from Planearound.com.

Yes, it is two colors. Geoff used my cabin cover as the master for his headliner mold, so the rear was finished awhile ago for that function. Since I'm using the Aerosport Products headliner, I chose not to waste paint where the headliner will be.

I plan to put individual task lighting on the aluminum inserts in the overhead.

Looking good Wesael! I remember that milestone well. We must have had the cabin on and off about 10 times trimming it down
