Trim wiring

I messed around with the DB-9 connectors quite a bit, trying to figure out how best to use them for wiring up all the trim stuff, servos, relays, stick switches, panel indicators, etc. The connectors are much bigger than needed for the job. I finally decided to give up on them and try some other connectors someone pointed out on Digikey. I’ll order them next week.

The weather has been quite warm (mid-50’s) with rain showers. I figured there might be a window tomorrow for painting. I sanded the baggage floors to knock down the crud that blew into the paint during the last session. I also prepped the seat floors.

I also pulled out the cowl instructions and plans. It is one of the most complicated plan sheets. I tried to figure out the arrangement of the hinges. I’ve read that the bottom hinges are difficult to rivet with the engine mount in the way. I might remove the engine mount and try cutting and installing the hinges before mounting the engine.
