Day 56

Today we were able to get the brake lines ran. The Line runs from the reservoir on the outside of the firewall, to the brake solenoid in the center console, through the main spar and splits underneath the rear floor out the sides, down the landing gears and to the brake calipers. You have to take special care that the lines are not making too tight of a bend anywhere and are not rubbing against anything.

We also ran the pitot lines inside the fuselage. We marked which ports they were coming from so that they would be easy to connect when we install the wings later. We ran the lines up to where the instrument panel will be and will be able to quickly hook them up with the time comes. We have on order the pair of static ports we will be using and will install them once they arrive.
