.8 hour flight confirmed the Hall Effect sensor was working properly again. The air was turbulent so I didn't do any of the flight testing cards other than test for canard stall speed. The OAT was close to 30F at 8000'. I could feel a couple small jets of cold air coming under the front if the canopy above the instrument panel. Also, cold air was coming through the back seat opening where the plans fuel selector mounts, so suspect the air is coming in around the turtle back.
I didn't see oil in the aft cowl, just a little on the aft baffle. After the oil change and running twice, the oil shows about 7.6 quarts on the dip stick. One quart had been added after running the engine and filling the filter. Another quart added after getting the engine up to temp and the oil cooler filled.
EPDM D shaped weather stripping was added to the front and side of the canopy. Some V-seal was applied to the canopy over the turtle back.
Sanded on the wheel pants a little.
