February 2022

 February 27/22

Installed the Fire extinguisher and First Aid kit and screwed the belly panel back into place.  I spent a day  draining and redoing six brake line fittings which had been weeping very slightly over a month.  At first I was going to just leave it but it kept nagging at me.  I didn't want any type of leaks, especially leaks in hard to reach locations, so was well worth the work of draining and fixing.  I installed the Control stick and wired in the PTT button.   Placed a hose clamps on the static vents, pitot hose line and the fuel air vent lines.  Tested the pitot and static lines for no leaks.  Using the computer and Avery label (sticky back and clear) sheets I made up all the required Placards required for the interior and exterior of the aircraft.  I then used a Label maker to make up all of the placards for switches and fuses on the panel.
