Partially installed the Matco Parking Brake valve. (Ordered some AN-3 nipples) to complete the install.
Also need to order a cable for the brake lock.
Measured the outer cable shield distance from the throttle quadrant to the butterfly at 86-89". Travel to fully open/close is 2" or 2.5" depending which hole is used in the butterfly.
Ordered AN-4 1/8" fittings for the fuel vent line termination into the firewall manifold.
Futzed with wiring for awhile. Would be nice to use a 90 degree back shell for some of the Dynon DB 9 connectors to reduce the depth clearance.
Started prepping the copilot thigh support ribs to be glassed in since the fuel lines and selector are plumbed.
This is my supplemental builders blog for a Cozy Mark IV which is a 4-seat, single engine, homebuilt light aircraft designed by Nat Puffer, with parts and plans supplied by Aircraft Spruce & Specialty Co. The aircraft is built from plans using basic raw materials. It is not a kit aircraft, though many small parts are available prefabricated. The Cozy is similar in design and construction to the 2-seat Rutan Long-EZ, from which it is derived, with approval from Burt Rutan.
