MGL instrument received

The MGL Explorer lite and all the other goodies came today from MGL in England, Parts For Aircraft. A very good experience doing business with them. I also order the ECB with the switch kit, so no I have to do some soldiering as well.



Windshield

Finished all the controls, those in the cockpit at least. Then continued on with the windshield. One thing I didn't do was to read the drawing update close enough. The brackets for the windshield bow is too far aft originally (pilots holes are wrong). So this has to be fixed. This also means the throttle will be further forward, and I have to make a new throttle bracket as well, because the holes will be wrong. I can re-use one hole, but not the other.

Ordered all the instruments. MGL Explorer lite and Trig radio and transponders. It's all coming within a week.
