WEIGHT UPGRADE

Cheers:
        I am in the process of filling the wings and tail and upgrading the
cockpit before installing it in the 'canoe'.
        Having opted for the weight increase kit, I drilled out the 3/8in pin
holes and have successfully installed the 1/2in ferrules. I am now
cvonsidering the crossbar and accessories.
(1) Is there anything I should do (in the way of special prep) to the
cockpit now for later incorporation of the rear pin mounts?
(2) Has someone (anyone?) kept a record of the time spent on the mod? If
so, I would really appreciate an estimate of the time spent working on
the mod, rather than the elapsed time (waiting for layup curing, etc.).
It would be a great help.
        If you are following me by a few weeks in the construction, I have kept
accurate log of the time spent on each stage, and can give some
intervals for planning purposes.
Happy landings,
Ferg A064 (#319)
