Always something to do…

As I get nearer to test flight authorisation there are always some bits to complete and get ready.

The inspection panels have been off for some time so needed a tidy and clean and then refit.

Then, there were the leather fairleads that needed to be repaired and replaced. These are glued on top of the Oratex using contact adhesive and linked around the edges to make them look less obstructive

One thing I’d missed on the pre inspection was the fuel bowl wire locking. I’d seen the wire locking in position but failed to see id snipped in 12 months ago when I undid the bowl to inspect for impurities. Having found it clean as a whistle .. amd it should be as there is a pre strainer up stream at the bottom of the tank, id forgotten to re wire.

Cutting away the 2 sections i added new, twisted and looped through the bowl to secure
