* I did more measurements and thinking about what to do with the warped flap and aileron misalignment. The pictures were sent to Arion for study.
* I made the stainless steel reflective backing plates for the landing lights and then mounted them on the wings.
* I sanded and filled more blemishes on the canopy frame. A fine sanding and then masking made it ready for the final sandable primer. Next will be color to the interior frame. I think it is ready.
