January

January 30 2022 

This month I installed the compass into the panel and honed out the hinges for the canopy bolts as they were very tight to get into place.  Installed the new Data Plate onto the upper center of the seat back and installed safety wire onto the engine components where it was required.  Using a digital level I measured all of the control surfaces angular movement limits and recorded on a data sheet as required by MDRA (Minister Delegate Recreational Aircraft) Canada, which is required in the final paperwork of the final inspection.  I made up a Annual Inspection Check sheet for my paperwork which is also part of the final inspection.  I spent time testing all of the electrical connections to all components and have everything working properly.  Tidied up wiring throughout the cockpit and bundled wires as much as possible.  Fabricated a bracket close to the carb heat valve to hold the C-Heat cable tightly in place 8 inches back from the B-nut on the sliding cable.
