As always Billy, nice work! For your left side tail fairing, remember your trim cable
exits at the back end of it, leave room for it. Also rivnuts work good for attach points
rather than using self tapping screws.

Good luck!

Nice setup! Do you have differential braking? I'm curious how ground handling will be with a castoring tailwheel.
