First up was trying to find a new route for a 1/4" cable from the RHS of the panel to the tail turtle deck for the ELT remote line. The forward bit was ok and the tail section was obvious. The transition through the spar and into the ducting was not so easy. The final solution ended up going through the RHS tunnel location on the spar, then outboard, round, across and through the tunnel and then aft with the strobe lines. Maybe not he 'best' solution, but everything else is already laid in - and isn't going to change. I think it will work fine, glad I got the extra few feet - 25' was just enough.
Started looking at the cut out and mounting of the FloScan sensor - this is about as far aft as it can go before it conflicts with the fuel pump.
Dad worked on the oil breather options from the engine - this is the current favourite - out of the way and provides a path through all the oil and fuel hoses without getting in the way too much.
