I lifted up the tail of the plane and put it on a saw horse so I could wrap up everything at the tail end. I finished the wiring for the Nav light. I had done the strobe a while back. I wanted to close up the rudder lower fairing. In my infinite wisdom, I decided to do a bunch of screws for this. I remember seeing an RV with this done a long time ago at Oshkosh 2004 and I liked it a lot. So, here's a load of nutplates. It's a bit of preparation for nutplating on the wing tips isn't it?!!! Yep, after doing this, I'm really looking forward to that!

Here it is completed. I think I'm going to fill the furthest rearward hole since it's in a bit of an awkward location for a countersink.
