As of Wednesday, we have completed the new wiring harness for the glass panel display for the engine instrumentation. We have added a few more pressure transducers to our proprietary oil system in the process. Before, we didn't have the panel space to monitor the secondary oil system, but with the glass display we now can add several more instruments to the mix, which is fantastic for us.
The physical panel itself is just now being finished up and will be sent to the anodizing shop along with a few other parts from the panel. We should have this wrapped up in the next week.
We have a few other projects around the plane which are coming along nicely as well.
There is still eight feet of dirt right outside the hangar, not sure how much longer it is going to be here, but it doesn't look promising.
More to follow.
David,
Great to hear that everything's moving forward! Keep up the good work and please post pics when you get the panel back from the anodizing shop.
Oh yeah, you know that dirt berm outside the hangar? I've got a solution! Open the hangar door, crank up the Toucan (tied down, of course), and proceed to see how long a full tank of gas lasts at full power and max thrust setting with the prop blast facing the dirt! Presto chango better than a Vegas magician it'll be gone and you'll be able to taxi!
Just kidding, but it was the first thing I thought of.
Have a great night guys!
Jeff
