I continued on with the throttle bracket today. First I put the holes in it, then went on to trim out it’s final shape. It turned out really neat. Here it is on the plane for the first time. I trimmed the first hole around the throttle body mounting. Next was the holes to the boss you can see on the sump. Two bolts go in there.

A close up from a slightly different angle.

Here’s the final trimmed up part with the throttle cable in there too. This isn’t the final assembly though, as it all has to come apart again for paint.

That was it for the throttle bracket. Next it was time to move back into the fuselage to do some fuel pipes. Ugh.
