Randy decided we needed a tunnel access panel. Berck agreed that it probably wouldn’t hurt anything, so Randy spent some time futzing with it. A bit absurd that the holes in the access panel he ordered (from Airward) didn’t actually line up. Given that they sold us $10 of parts for $69, it could at least fit.
Then we mated the aft fuselage section that’s been in storage for the last couple of months with the forward fuselage. That was pretty exciting, and it make it obvious that this plane is large. Jonah’s days of parking the Subaru in the garage are numbered.
Sadly, like everything with this plane, it was only a temporary mating. They’re now divorced so all the holes can be deburred and dimpled.
Randy: 4 hours, Berck: 4 hours, Jonah 3.75
