Today's weather, despite less sunny and less warm than yesterday, allowed to prime all the remaining parts. After sanding and degreasing, thirty more parts are awaiting assembly.

Today's weather allowed a priming session. I first degreased all the parts and then primed all the aft bulkhead parts, all in all forty parts. Next time I have the seat bulkhead and the firewall parts to prime.

Tomorrow, the weather may allow a priming session. So I decided to do some prepping of the bulkheads i.e deburring and sanding.
I also corrected a small default on the bulkheads, the slots that will get the main fuselage longeron are too narrow so I filed them to correct size.

Today only small tasks, first I cleaned the workshop. Then I did some small adjustments on the tips. I wanted to begin the finishing process of the tips, but my epoxy resin didn't like being in the cold workshop and will only be usable tomorrow after small heating.
So, I decided to countersink the lateral part of the main bulkhead. As these parts will be under the fuselage side skins, some holes need to be countersunk. The rivets around the opening are not countersunk, they will be hidden by the wings.



To finish, I installed the ailerons on the wing, this will allow me to install the flaps. To insert the washers, I fabricated a small tool with some leftover aluminium.
