Sanding and small filling mainly on the cowls.
But in fact I was more than three hours in the workshop cleaning and moving all the bits so that I can get the plane out. The forecast shows a few sunny days ahead, so I will try to install the wings, at least try fit them and work as much as possible on all that has to be done with the wings on.

All the parts prepared yesterday got sanded, and as expected, looking at the parts made new pinholes appear. All have been filled, or I hope so.

After a light sanding, I fill all the fiberglass parts. There are three that need no work, the others go from a few pinholes to an allmost complete rework. I use this filler from b]Polyfiber[/b] which is easy to use, cures rapidly and is highly visible. I should have used it earlier.



I also filled the pinholes on the cowls, in fact therre were very few.

After a little sanding, I prime all the parts. Some look good, but some still have pinholes so I did only a thin layer of primer, then I will fill the holes and prime again.
