Tailcone Complete

After many rivets … Thank goodness for the pneumatic rivet gun … I completed the main tailcone.  This completes the assembly of the main components for the empennage and tailcone.  The next steps will require me to put them all together to to confirm fit and function.

The weather is getting pretty nippy here in Wisconsin.  My garage (hanger) is not heated, so the project days will probably be few and far between.  I have placed the order for the next kit (wings), and have been given an estimated ship date of February 15th.  I will have to find some days in December and January to complete “fit testing” of empennage componets, then storage in preparation for the wing kit.
