Test fitting the new nose structure. 

Ahhhhhh... CNC cut winglet cores.

Winglet foam being joined

Sitting to cure. 

Aileron checking, checking, and more rechecking. 

Moved the nose section to be with the fuselage. 

Old nose. 

No nose. The new nose section is sitting to fuselage's right. The NG3 and NG4 strut pieces had to be re-floxed (that explains all the clamps). But at least now the new nose will be ready to be installed.

Glasses the mini Ng-30's in place with two plies BID tape. 

Glassed new F6 with 2 plies BID.

Floxed NG8's in place and screwed in place. Will bolt together the entire nose assembly tomorrow so I don't get flox on the bolt. This whole thing will then be ready to be attached to the fuselage.

Needed some inspiration, so I downloaded a photo of Berkut 13! I've seen it up close and it is an inspiration. Now, every time I check my phone I'm reminded that I should be working on the EZ. Thanks to the canard desktop guys.

Also, my girlfriend AImi came over to help me glass the new NG-30's. Ordered hardware tonight so I can bolt things up soon. 

2/12/16

Cut glass circles and outside skin for NG-30. 

Then, manufactured NG8's. I botched the first set, but got it right the second time.

2/2/16

Cut and glassed inside of new NG-30's for extended nose.

It's been a real crappy month. I don't have much to show for progress. I've been busy with JanTerm, a mini semester where I focus on one class for January. I learned to play Bridge, which has been a difficult experience. Anyways, I just noticed that my canopy from Todd's is not the correct length, so I have to take it back home to my dremel. Amazingly, the canopy fits in my Golf. Also, I had fits with the urethane railings around the canopy, but that's ok because they would have been incorrect due to the length issue anyway.
