Nav lights
I called Advanced Flight Systems on the way home from work to ask about the status of getting a wiring harness and the EFIS and EMS screens. They’re getting close to sending out the harnesses, and I’m close to the top of the list. Hopefully I’ll see the harness or at least the engine sensors in the next couple of weeks. I didn’t get any time promises for the screens, although they’re apparently ready to start building them. They’ve sent a few systems to Glasair (as I suspected) and Van for his personal plane. I can’t worry about when I’m going to receive the screens. I’ll keep calling every few weeks and asking, but they’ll get here when they get here. It would be unfortunate if the project gets held up waiting, but it’s not the end of the world. I just really hope it all fits as planned and is easy to wire up.
The P-mags arrived back from having their firmware updated. I re-installed them on the engine hopefully for the last time. With the new feature of being able to time them by just blowing into the manifold pressure sensor, I shouldn’t have to move them again.
I finished up the dimmer installation from yesterday and started working on the nav light wiring. I decided to use local grounds for the nav lights and use just a butt splice in the center tunnel to branch out to the wings and aft light.
