Fuselage Ordered

Whoo Hoo! Christmas came early and I ordered the fuselage. Thanks, Dad! I think he wants to see it finished and go flying with me. Delivery is estimated at eight weeks so I've got some time to finish the little bits and pieces left on the wings and empennage.

Here's the fuselage contents list from Van's:

• All skins accurately sheared and formed. All the RV-7/7A, RV-8/8A and RV-9/9A, fuselage skins are pre-punched. 
• All fuselage bulkheads and ribs press-formed.  
• Extruded angle for longerons and stiffeners. Formed aluminum angle for skin stiffeners.  
• All the pre-cut and bent aluminum panels and channels used in the cockpit and baggage area.  
• Ready-to-install rudder cables with stainless steel fittings. 
• All steel parts such as longeron brackets, control sticks, rudder pedals, flap controls, tail wheel fork, are welded and in most cases, powder-coated as well. 
• Main gear legs on the RV-6A, RV-7A, RV-8, RV-8A, and RV-9A. 
• Brake master cylinders, lines, and fittings. 
• All nuts, platenuts, washer, bolts, screws, rivets, pop-rivets, tube fittings needed.
