15/03/2009 - Outboard top skin

With some help from Callum and Bernard we managed to get the all the top skins riveted on without any dramas.

 

I spent a little while putting the conduit in, which makes a hell of a din, and I am sure I said that the last time !

 

 

Then all the grommets went in to accept the green line for pitot and the blue line for angle of attack.

 

After some thought I decided I didn't like the way the bottom of the pitot mast was only attached to the skin, it looks like it will move around a little when force applied to it, so I have started to make a bracket which will anchor it from moving.
