Tonight was a milestone revisited! My mom and dad came over to help get the fuselage lifted up on the sawhorses to install the main gear again...this time for good! I didn't take any pics until we were done, so here it is!
After they took off, I removed the stands from the center section.
Then I got back to work on the panel mount for the 295 Garmin. I drilled the holes for the bracket to panel dock, then cleco'd them together, and clamped the whole thing to the panel for drilling.
After all the holes were drilled, it was time to get the squeezer out to rivet the brackets to the panel.
Since I sold the EXPBUS, I am making a switch panel to cover the hole I had cut for it. I took a few measurements, and made some marks to come up with this-
It's still a little rough, but that's about what I'm thinking will work. We'll see...
