Step by Step, Inch By Inch

Spent the last couple of days grinding away the paint and stuff that needs to be removed, prior to installing the new canard.  I also had a fairly large screw-up.  As I mentioned in the previous post, I accidentally sawed through the aluminium fuel line that is used to transfer fuel from the main tank to the header tank. C-Rod would call that a beer penalty.

I went to drill out the old fuel line, and wound up boring a hole through the bottom of the fuel tank. On, my back!  So yesterday, the main focus was fixing that mess up, plus a couple of other things.

Today I hope to do a trial fit of the canard into the fuselage and see what needs to be done to bring the two together.
