I keep forgetting how big the wings on a 9A really are. They are looking great!

Cool Lorin - you and I are at exactly the same spot. I just finished with the wiring / autopilot / pitot tube and am preparing the bottom skins for riveting... We're having a rough week though (lost the avatar dog to cancer monday :cry: ) so I'll probably fall behind for a bit.

Good luck!

Same here. I have just fabricated a bracket for the Gretz pitot's electronic control unit and received my order from Stein for the autopilot servo harness wire and 14AWG for the pitot.

Now, if I can just find a rivet partner for those wing skins... :mrgreen:
