Avionics mounting parts and wing fit prep: 6 hours


  • Installed backer plate and fuse block for G3X back up power.
  • Riveted plate nuts on all avionics mounting parts that had been primed. Also riveted sub panel engine control bracket.
  • Connected and torqued fuselage fuel lines getting ready for wing fit. The left fuel line to bulkhead fitting felt a little tight so I took it off and ground down a bracket to give it more clearance.
  • Positioned fuselage in garage to fit wings. I had to do a little rearranging but with the fuselage diagonal in the garage the wings will fit on no problem.

Andair fuel valve looks nice
