Firewall, pneumatics, and other progress

With the engine mounted we are installing many components on the firewall.  Additionally, electrical and antenna installations are in progress throughout the aircraft.  Below are a few pics with comments.

PNEUMATICS

Left side firewall pneumatics installed.  It doesn't show up well in these photos because the stainless stell firewall is also polished, but all the B-nuts are polished, as well.  The gascolator shown installed  in the top pic (lower left, fire red).

Right side pneumatic hard lines.  Wherever you see a string in the picture that denotes a forthcoming soft line install.  Notice the reflection of the start solenoid valve on the polished firewall.

ELECTRICAL

Left side engine mount and open new magneto (being wired).

Strobe lights installed in wing tips.

Strobe pack installation.  All empennage wiring is wrapped in "snake skin" for durability.

Comm 1 antenna (test fit, will be replaced with stainless steel type), and MB sled antenna (behind ADF hole).

COSMETICS
