Well I put the skin on. I’ve heard this skin doesn’t fit, but I didn’t have too much trouble. What I did have trouble with was match drilling everything. In the end, I missed one bracket that will have to be addressed with final assembly.

As it stands, I’ve not primed any of the smaller brackets. I don’t know if I’m going to go back and do so, or leave them bright aluminum. I don’t expect much corrosion around the electronics/avionics.

After much match drilling I tore it all down and primed it.

This will be fun to get together. Unfortunately it’s going to have to wait a while…
