Add some light sandable primer over the self-etching primer, smoothed it out and then shot the color to match the interior since this will be seen from the cockpit and also in the baggage compartment.
Also primed the F-8104-L + R support ribs.
Started to work on getting ready to install the landing gear so we can remove the fuse from the rotisserie and prep for the finish kit to arrive and get the engine mount on. This included installing the 15+ bolts and related washers/nuts on each each side. Should be able to mount the gear next time.


The stiffeners required for SL-00014 were laid out, drilled and dimpled. I’ll prime the stiffeners and install next time.


Deburred, dimpled and added some light primer on the bottom of the front top skin. I’ll smooth the primer out and paint it the same as the interior color.
Fit and drilled the Rollbar.
Prepared the items for the forward fuselage skin, including F-803C-1 and all F-821x baggage door support strips. Realized I was going to have some interference between the Avionics door I cut and F-873G which is the upper brace. I had to bend the tab the opposite way on F-873G and create a doubler for it.
