1 hr. starting to put on skins.

This skin part, which doesn't appear in the Sling 4 instructions, but does in the Sling 2 instructions, needs to be bent around the frame.

And it's bent.

So, I guess this skin completely covers the one I just put on...

And it's on...

...But the hole pitch seems to be a bit different between the skin and the longeron.  Arrow on the left, the holes are lined up.  By the time we get to the arrow on the right, they're totally off.  Hmmm.....  But, at the first rib (next hole to the right of the right arrow), it's lined up again.

I removed the audio panel box from the panel because there's really no need for it be accessible.  The control of the remote version of the audio panel via the G3X Touch is more than enough for the purpose.  Still have to add the flap control, parachute handle and nail down the switches better.


NEXT TASKS:
  1. Start putting on the 3 rear fuselage skins as per the instructions.
  2. Rivet the one on the left wing's step rib that needs special handling.?? (to be done in "spare" time).
