Default RE: 10 ft PC6 Turbo Porter

finished up on the tail wheel assy. To make the wheel cover I used a spray paint can as the mold for the curved top part. The paint can was just a little larger than the 2.5" tail wheel. I just glued the wheel cover inplace at the front and used 0.08" carbon rod at back supports. The CA glue is the rubberized black stuff. I switched out the 1/8" ply plate in favor of some 0.125 carbon plate I got at the AMA show from The Composite Store booth. Also checked on the tail wheel stearing cable routing and patched up the extra holes I made in the process.

Got around to drilling the holes for the lower wing strut attach fittings. I dont like the way the 2-56 sockets head screws look so I have some pan head screws on order.
