Flying my Sonex N629SX

While there hasn't been much time for building on the Sling, I have been keeping up my currency in the Sonex.  Gone flying twice in the last week...yesterday Liam went up with me again and we buzzed around the Honda R&D campus where I work.  The picture shows the layout of R&D and in the background is the Marysville Auto Plant (MAP) where's the Honda Accord and Acura TLX are manufactured.  To the right of the R&D campus is Transportation Research Center (TRC) of Ohio.  It's a jointly owned facility between Honda, and Ohio State University - that is used for product durability testing before cars go to mass production.

Vertical Stabilizer Structure Complete

2 hrs.  - It's been over a month since any work was done on the Sling 4.  We've had a major diversion with the remodeling and tenant finish of my wife's new office fo her medical practice.  That project has made some great progress...so this afternoon while "relaxing" I decided to step out to the garage and complete the vertical stabilizer structure.  I had previously finished the rivnuts and the forward spar and ribs.  Completed reaming out the hole s in the multiple parts of the rear spar.  Made sure I noted the holes not to rivet, and finished riveting the rear spar structure to the ribs.  Also reviewing the plans I noticed missing a doubler plate for the top rib, for the Glide Slope / Localizer / VOR antenna puck.  This is now complete.
