Monthly Construction Log - May 2010

| 1 | Installed main wheels. Aircraft is now off the blocks! |

Installed cabin heat control cable. Filed small relief notches into
the tube end to allow
access to the set screws - would have been much easier to do BEFORE it
was riveted in... Installed throttle and choke cables, aux power
(12V) connector, and master switch into sub-panel. Still need to tighten
throttle cable nut - the new sub-panel support bracket makes access to
the throttle cable nut pretty much impossible.
