Christmas in November
John took off work early and we headed out to Hagerstown to pick up the fuselage kit for the RV-9A that we’re building. (Well, actually he’s doing most of the building but I help sometimes.) We left it in the crate overnight and unpacked it this morning.
We got everything inside and John is downstairs unwrapping and inventorying all of the parts. It was cool to see recognizable parts for once. Some of the options we ordered included steps and pedals for both sides. You can see all of the delivery pictures over in the photo album!
Starting on the Flaps
I’ve been hearing cutting and grinding noises from the basement for most of the afternoon, so I ventured down for a look-see. With the ailerons done, John has started working on the flaps. Those are the assembled spars on the workbench.
I caught him in the midst of fabricating shims, mounting brackets and such for the control horns.
