Big radiator and tight cowling, should bee some photos earlier showing it
-
Got the new tank cover up and had to copy the inspection holes over to the old cover that didn't have it.
Armrests are now on the doors.
And i test mounted the cowl again to decide where to put the black line, i had to put it under the air intake.
Tomorrow one of the wings are going to the painter over the weekend and the other one next weekend, so within one month she will have her wings

dont forget the wodden frame ;)Yes Hank I have all the brackets made as with the extended baggage area you have to mount the chute half way back. Not really a drama though. They modified the straps and added 2 more that go around the undercarriage now so I have to get those straps soon and fit them as I will be ordering the chute fairly soonMark -

Really interesting new panel they have, makes it allot easier and nicer.
The extended luggage compartment I wish I had, can you use the rescue chute in that configuration?
Is the front wheel of different kind than the rear?

Got some spill on the cowl, i was forced to since ICP did not use gel coat, had to use so much primer to fill up the tiny pores:freaked:

i hate fibre glass!! it itches!!!!!!!!!!
-
I moved the reservoirs for the brake fluid, this works out a bit better, i also filled the system and tested the brakes,, works like a charm, very easy to bleed the system with the bleeding kit.
Made some plugs for the fiber glass molding, this bonocell is really nice.
Now i just have to put the fiberglass over.

I have the same start button and carbon fiber film, seems to be a good combo =)

I emailed you my invoice, I ordered parking brake valve extra. Black Colour extra, wheel caps extra, bleeding kit and oil.How much did the wheel kit cost Dennis?...including that braking valve...I can see it in the box of partsThe alir brake regulator was included in the base kit.
It's possible to get a hand brake on the yoke with integrated parking brake if you want too save weight and cash, I still wanted the differential breaking though.
If you dare to go 4.00x6 tires it's possible too save 2 kilos more but they are more rounder, slimmer. I do think the outback possibilities get limited in that case.

Icp supplied in the kit fabric o ring and a steal washer to seal it, that's all.They look bloody good Skee. On the original Tyre,rims in the kit I notice the bearing wasn't a sealed unit and between the dust washer and wheel there was a slight gap where dust and dirt can get in over time, did you or others find this as well?- 1

I have the PAC02 (15x6.00-6") Tires with RF-004 4.00x6 wheels, that is the same tires icp send out, not sure about the wheel icp send out(easy to meassure).
If i had chosen the RF-009 6.00x6 wheel i could have gone super tundra 26" wheels but i want the Datum rectractable skiis in the future so i got the 4.00-6" wheels, no use for Aussies
I recon to save around 4~5Kilos, but the intresting part is the "ALIR", makes it allot harder to wack one wing into the ground like Kyle´s aircraft accident due to uneven braking.

Saw a guy in a Zenith 601 come and land and the brake disc had come loose, wasnt so fond of the standard wheels after that.Had a look at the Beringer and they do look pretty good.Mailman was here with them today but i was at work, will pick them up tomorrow and mount this weekend =) its almost like pure porn ;) and now im ready to mount skiis =)
