2 hrs. adjusting the static port line routing and starting work on routing the wiring through the center fuselage.

The factory mentioned to be careful about moisture in the static line and that made me think it wasn't the best arrangement to have the fitting angled down.

Better to do it this way so that moisture can't easily get into the lines.  Will tie it down later.

Was thinking of fabricating the backing plate for the COM1 antenna, but the instructions seem to indicate that it comes with a backing plate, so I'll wait to get that at Oshkosh and see if that is usable.

Wiring/routing diagram from the factory.

This edge grommet was way too stiff to try and put it in this hole...

This softer edge grommet worked much better.

You can see several of them in place in this pic.

Using this to allow for wire ties to be riveted to the aluminum.

Wire wrap goes through like this.

Hole for the cable tie base.

Riveted in place.

Putting on better heat shrink tubing for labeling the wires.  Tomorrow I'll start routing these forward!
