NACA Vents, Antennas, Roll Servo, and Strobe Power Pack

Last few days of work included installing NACA vents, mounting both comm antennas and transponder antenna, installing strobe power pack, and roll servo.  Also drilled holes for headsets and ran headset wires.

Mike remounted transponder tray and drilled VHF antenna mounting holes.  Transponder was previously mounted under the floor panels which would have made access difficult once the floor panels were installed.  (2hrs)

Spent about two hours cleaning up the wiring in the tower so now it looks pretty.  Next step is figuring out where the headset jacks will go and get those in. 

Next steps – mounting the comm antennas, remounting the GTX33 higher so it slides out of the tray above the comm antenna, making a mounting bracket and mounting the Navworx behind the panel, then adding the grounding block/forest of tabs to the structure.
