Progress
Wow. That is moving. I'm at 2 years and just starting the fuse. You should be in the air next week at that rate. Congratulations.

Nice, Guilherme! I'm almost to that stage, just waiting on Skybolt fasteners to arrive as well as another prop extension (got bad info, from a Lycoming rep no less, on the flange bolt diameter. I shoulda flipped a coin.  ).

Finally got some riveting done again... and today I FINALLY got my Sioux drill back! Only three-plus MONTHS for a warranty repair. Hope this sucker lasts a lifetime now.

Well, I'm not anywhere near as far along as Guilherme, but last night a friend from EAA 80 came over and helped me get the bottom skin riveted on the aft section, cleco on the center section and the forward skins... Lots more work to do but it's looking more like "airplane parts" now!

Fuse
Looking good Dale.
Right behind you. I spent the day massaging the tail cone and bulkheads into submission.

Bah. You have my sympathy. I must have spent a week or more trying to get that bloody thing right. Patience and persistence, you'll get it.
