Wheel fairings cont.

More wheel fairing work. A little more time consuming than I thought it would be. I did start today by putting a coat of paint on the canopy frame.

The main wheel fairings were opened where the main gear legs go through. The fairing brackets were then fabricated and the brackets and fairings fit onto the wheels. Epoxy was placed around the screw locations.

While the epoxy is setting I started on the front wheel fairing by trimming the fairings and bending the strips.

Time: 3.5 hrs
