Work on the fuel system. Finally decided on the location of both the main tank valve, and the upper tank valve. Kinda have the selector knobs in the general area of where they will be located. #avgeek #biplane #scratchbuilt

Wow... WOW! I’ve been putting in quite a few hours on the biplane the last few days. Fast forward... tonight I worked on notching the edging for the selector panel; one “test” and one keeper. Put me down for three.7 hours. Still need to trim 1/16th off the left-lower side...

Just... about finished with the fuel valve/selector panel. All I need to do is secure the selector knob to the extension tube. #avgeek #biplane #EAA

Just finished the turtledeck flooring... The turtledeck is attached to the fuselage and the flooring is in and secured to its mounts! All I need to do is paint the flooring... and I’ll do that when everything else gets painted. #avgeek 😎

The re-make of the motor mount brackets... I’m well in my way to making the new ones. 1.2 hours spent on Big Ass Bird last night. Check my blog out for the reason why.

No stopping here... I’ve been building all this time. One more motor mount bracket to go then I can weld these puppies onto the fuselage. #biplane #avgeek #planesoftwitter #eaa

. Making the engine mount for the Jacobs radial engine. Second side notched. Used a 5/8” tube inside the 3/4” tube on the pattern tube to allow me to notch the second side and then side out for the perfect fit! 😎👍🏻 #biplane #radialengineskybolt #radialengine #skybolt

The internet is up in arms, practically begging Dr. Peter Hotez to step into a debate ring with Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr on vaccines💉. With millions pledged for charity, if it happens, why the silence, Dr. Hotez? Is #Biopharma corruption on display again?🧐
