I picked up my fuselage kit today from the ABF terminal. Picking up the kit was quick and painless. The crate arrived in top-notch shape. They dropped it into the back of my truck with a forklift and I was on my way home.
Getting the crate out of the truck and into the garage on my own was quite a bit more work, but I got it done.
Inventory is complete, looks like I am only missing one bolt, not bad at all. According to my check-sheet I am missing a hardware bag also, but I believe that may be an oversite on my part. I will dig back in and see if I can find it.
While performing my inventoy, I came across the RV-7 firewall bits that are also used on the -6. I can't believe the level of finish these parts have. They are practically ready to rivet right out of the box. The angle is even machined to shape! All I can say is wow, I'm a bit jealous.
