Great info. I'll go poke around over there. Need to join anyway to get access to a few drawings for a couple of missing or damaged pieces of sheet metal.

Re: Fuselage progress.
Wasn't sure the blanket method would since you technically can't put a non sewn seam on that center stringer... Although that was successfully done previously, just not legally.

Thanks!

Need the tray and receiver. Willing to let go of the ugly Hobbs meter that replaced mine... Fixing the dash was a bear!

Parking brake attachment
How does the parking brake wire attach to the hand lever? My son took that apart...
I notice the service manual mentions an an515 something something "terminal". Heck if I can figure out what that is!
Thanks!
