Greg's parents are still in need of his help, therefore he
was
unavailable tonight. Rick and I decided to work with out Greg. Without
Greg things were a little quieter, however it felt good to be working on the
project once again. All three of us still have family commitments hovering
over our heads so work may still be spotty till mid June. Hang in there tho,
as we are. Rick worked on the rear wing faring which are attached to
the fuse.
Meanwhile Gary worked on the front wing fillets. Again this sounds so
quick and easy, however it takes time and eating much sanding dust.After a
while we were happy with the results, so add just ever so little balsa putty
to help form fillets and we call this area good for the evening.
When we installed the tail wheel some time long long ago, we made the
cutout just large enough for the wheel to operate. That has been bothering
us for some time now, especially Rick. Last fall we say Nine-O-Nine and took
even more pictures along with dimensions. So we dig into our files and dig
out our notes from the trip. With a little layout work and cutout work we
now have a scale tail wheel opening.
With that done we called it a night.
