What a day… It has been fun, but it has also been a LONG day. I was tempted not to drive home, but in the end I decided that the allure of my own bed was stronger than my tiredness. Besides I am not building tomorrow since i have some important things to do here…

So what did I do all day? Simply put, I worked on the landing gear of the plane – which involved getting the wheels onto the wheel struts. This was not particularly hard, but did involve getting quite dirty slowly rubbing the steel struts down whilst keeping a mirror finish. Following installing all three wheels on their struts we then acutally installed them on the plane… This was not all that easy, since it involved some lifting, but was not all that hard.

We also drilled the engine mount to the firewall at the front of the plane so we could install the front wheel. And also we installed the brakes for the plane too… Most of this was temporary, but looked fantastic. Everything seems to fit which is great. And it all looks amazing.
