    Getting ready to start fabric
    The horizontal stabalizer fixed, com transponder ELT and gps antenna brackets made and welded in waiting on some drain grommets rudder cables and new hardware.
    what are some of the thing you guys wished you had done prior to fabric on the fuselage?
    very impressed with the oratex did a small picture frame to test the glue all seams to be okay, it is water based and delivers during sub 20 degree weather and can’t freeze. Wish they put a temp tattle take in box for piece of mind.

    Position lights and elt?
    What is everybody using? For position and anti collision light wanting to stay led. And elt. Don’t plan on much night flight but while fabric is off might as well.

    Thanks man that picture is alot better than mine. Thats lind of what I was thinking and after a few rounds the tower instructors will have it figures out. Radios and follow normal trafic pattern procedure hopfully its not a problem. Saves alot of time and money being able to keep these things at home.

    While the fabric is off the fusalage what esle should be done? Not interested in a you tube monster just a nice clean airplane to play with. How much wider is a 4 vs 2. The model 2 I owned was just too much of a project for me, sold it with a lot of work to be done still, I would almost consider it a one person plane. Hal has been through the engine in the past couple months it is missing the seat pan along with some misc that I'll find along the way.
