| Dad continued with finishing the rudder cable fairing. | 
|
| I decided to go with a little sleeving over the brake lines. I also finished cutting and fairing the lines and fuel vent lines. | 
|
| Dad worked on canopy latch or more specifically the skin. Some of the corners were squared and the latch was smoothed. The punched 1/8" material has a slight bow which we continue to try and remove. | 
|
| I now understand why the fuel vent line should have a forward bend on the aft rise. The fore-deck panel doesn't fit, rather than trying to re-do the whole fuel line I trimmed the panel. | 
|
| As part of the preparation for the instruments, I want to provide a level / true platform. I carefully marked and drilled several locations for nutplates. | 
|
| The rest of the afternoon was spent setting up the forward deck. I also cleaned / smooth the weather sill platform. |
