Today was a good day. I feel like I am over the hump and the rest is all down hill from here.

My spinner came today, looks and fits great, thanks Amanda





All the backing for the doors is in and she is ready for the easy sand.
Trying to get the door and the opening perfect was and is not easy. The easy sand will fill in any gaps and frame the opening. I will hit the doors and the front of the cowl tomorrow morning and then I will install the latches.

I may try the two way cylinders to get better control of the speed. Anyways I should be able to wrap the cowl up by Friday and move onto the canopy this weekend, not sure we will have a good flyable weekend so building is just fine by me.
