Continuing with the LHS wing, I removed and processed the edges and feathering on the outboard lower skin.
One lesson learnt from the RHS wing - get any snap bushes to point 'away' from the side you need to buck - this is the better way....
Then I went onto the pitot mount and connections. The pitot comes with -4 flared fittings and I understand the whole pitot / piping can get quite hot - too hot for direct connection of plastic tubing. Therefore we have decided to use soft AL tube for the first 18" or so and provide the joint at the mid access cover.
The flared connections need to be just below and just above the wing skin level and we plan to slide the mast 'up' into the wing for the connection process. It is going to be tight in there with the nuts, wire and connectors.
The whole system. I've trimmed the AL tube different lengths and tomorrow I'll label properly. Hopefully the stager should reduce any change of incorrect static / dynamic confusion.
Dad started sorting the DuckWorks light nutplates locations.
Also had confirmed the order should be at the 'local' depot over night - still 30 mins away, but probably worth the drive to pick it up tomorrow rather than waiting for Monday - toys and Christmas eve!
