Late update on the project. Through an epic session, Sam, Alexander, and I were able to make some final progress before Oshkosh. Read on for more detail, and some highlights from the Oshkosh adventure!
Freshly back from some time in Utah, I continue the race towards completing Fuselage Drilling and Prep.
The second half of June has been a mix of Velocity and RV-8 progress. With a little help from Sam I was able to get through a big milestone…the fuselage is enclosed! Read on for more details.
In two epic sessions James and I successfully turned the fuselage into official canoe status! Read on for the fun (and challenging) sessions.
Aft Fuselage coming together with more part prep and priming. Almost time to assembly to attach the tailcone to the Fwd Fuselage!
