I really don't know what to call them or if they really exist, but while working on the coupe I noticed that there is a sizable gap between the side windows and the fuselage longeron on each side. This allows rainwater to run into the inside of the coupe in the most expensive part of the airplane, the 'center section'. How is this gap sealed? also is there supposed to be drain holes in the bottom skin? How about arm rests for the interior or maybe there isn't room for them. While taking the horizontal stabilizer, elevator and rudder apart for cleaning and preservation, I found mud daubber nest on the interior of the stabilizer. I measured what I took out and got almost a full three pound can of the mud nests. You who reside where they do might want to take a look., Just remove the tailcone and disconnect the elevator rod and swing the elevator up on the hinges. Gives you a complete looksee into the interior of the stabilizer. Richard [EMAIL PROTECTED]
