Mounted doors (need to find some hinge pins)
Trim, drilled, attached butt rib closeouts
Found a way to get the wing strut washers in place
Next: wing root fairings, rig controls, weight and balance, strakes, turtle deck, adjust prop, engine startup check list
Began installing a manifold balance tube modification. Managed to install the machined manifolds and set up to measure the balance tube cut lengths.

Wow, that's a neat photo, Harlan. Almost looks like a model airplane on a carefully prepared miniature photo set!
