Morse keying switch ready for installation. I probably restored this about 15 or more years ago and it has been waiting to go on. Mounted on the cockpit tube under right hand sub panel box.

Static Elevator coming along. I can't assemble anymore until the castings are made.

The beginning of a static elevator made out of commercial aluminium. I made five of these ribs today, which is way quicker than I would take making airworthy ribs. This elevator will possibly go on my Boomerang or be swapped for other components. Working on this static elevator will also help me to develop tooling and techniques required on the airworthy elevators.

Fuselage to wing fairing from A46-147 Located behind exhaust on Stb side. The forward section of the panel is made out of stainless steel for heat resistance.

 Remains of the "No Step" stencils on the panel.

Complete set of elevator ribs in various stages of completion.

I pushed the plane outside today for a quick photoshoot.
