I placed the fuselage sides upside down at the approximate width apart and confirmed that the top longerons are level. I noticed a few gaps between the top longerons and the fiberglass so I filled them with flox. Shop temperature was 74 deg F and the humidity was 49%. 32g resin was mixed with 12g …
10kt crosswind from the north and a few circuits on rnwy 27 at CYPQ this evening… then back to the BBA hangar … to catch up on some paper work.
I spent a few hours cleaning up the workshop this afternoon in preparation for Fuselage Assembly. The Fuselage Assembly process will consist of assembling the sides and the bulkheads together and then constructing the bottom of the aircraft and attaching it to the structure as well.
Got 30 minutes of circuits in tonight before the weather crumbs-out for the remainder of the week. Aerobatic harnesses are on order for the plane and we expect to have them installed by the end of June !
