I needed almost three hours to finish the connections at the strobe pack. There are a few pins and connectors to install, the ths shield have to be grounded (all the grey cables are shielded and the shields are grounded at the top right screw).
Then I tried to make a nice harness and route it so it does not interfere with the rudder cable.

The wiring goes on but it seems nothing changed since yesterday. There are a lot of small tasks to do : cut the correct length, mark the wire, crimp the terminals, route the wire. All the wires behind the main bulkhead are now installed. I still have to make some connexions and secure all the wires.
The picture shows all the wires going through the main bulkhead.




Today the working time passed the 1800 hour mark.

Still wiring, today I did the wire below the seat pants.
I first install the nav light and taxi and landing light wires. They all go to a terminal strip under the left seat.



On the left side, this is the main bulkhead passthrough, there is the NAV antenna cable, the landing and taxi light wires and the pitot tubing. I still have to squeeze though eight small wires going to the left stick.



The central tunnel is getting crowded too after I ran the wires for the flap motor and flap position sensor.
I still have to install the aileron trim servo wires.

The only remaining wire going to the aft fuselage where those of the strobes. I run the two wires in the central tunnel and then the route to the wings via small holes under the seats. The holes will also allow the routing of some other wires : terminals strips below the sticks, taxi light and nav lights.
I have no more wire to run to the aft fuselage, there are six wires to run from the bulkhead behind the seats and fifteen wires through the main bulkhead.

Some small difficulties today, but I managed to finish securing the wiring of the aft fuselage. I think nothing should move in the future.



I also begun to use a new technique to make nice harnesses. The harnesses are tied to the structure using plastic tiewraps, but they are made using lacing cord. It's not that difficult, less bulky and probably cheaper (see b]HERE).



I then installed some of the wire that will have to go through the main bulkhead. The picture shows the harness coming from the rear fuselage and the autopilot servo harnesses (top of the picture).



This is the left side with the NAV antenna wire.



This is the right side with the golden COM antenna wire and the autopilot roll servo harness.



There are still some wires left and the pitot tubing.
