1 hr. on the left wing landing light assembly and pitot

Cleco'ed together the landing light assembly and put in the rivnuts with the Loctite 277.  I'll rivet the assembly after I've test fitted the leading edge skin.

Test fitting of the pitot assembly.

I've extensively updated and added lots of detail to the next sessions list.  This is super helpful to me to know what I'm going to be doing so that I don't have to waste time thinking about it when I go to work on the plane.  And I just like looking at the list to know exactly what I'm going to be doing and in what order.  Otherwise it's easy to get overwhelmed when there's lot to do...
