Default RE: Yellow Aircraft F-16C EDF Build

Still plugging along.  I have secured the tail-cone to fuse.  I had to first re-paint the "chrome" ring just before the turkey feathers due to my leaving tape on it for too long.  It pulled the paint off and left several ugly spots.  Check out the video for the process I used to secure the tailbone without using screws on the outside.

My goal now is to bust butt to get it ready for more taxi tests this weekend.  Rumor has it the weather will be dry at least part of the weekend.
