I did the same as Frans, used brass bolts through the firewall as the main star
points, I fed 5 wires with ring ends through a hole from the instrument panel
and connected on the bolts so I can easily remove the instrument panel. I had
noisy and quiet power and return and alternator output. Really you want the battery
to be the bus (but then my battery is in the FWFD). In the instrument panel
again I wired to brass bolts on the ledge 2" from the bottom for ground
star connections to low power instruments etc.

I was interested in this topic but found it too cryptic to understand what you
are actually saying.
Sorry, maybe its relating to a previous post.

I am considering Vertical Power to simplify fusing and wiring. Has anyone used this system? http://www.verticalpower.com/

| Subject: | Should top wing skin be simulated when bonding on wing-profile |
jig
To Any/All builders,
Before bonding the wing profile jig on the upper part of the wing (when
installing flaps on the wings), is it assumed that the upper wing skin
thickness should simulated with a suitable spacer such as popsicle sticks or
such? The jig, when placed on the wing root, lines up with the indentation
where the top wing skin would be, at the rear of the wing. I placed lately
taped-in sticks at the rear of the wing, where the jig will be set, to
simulate the top skin, in anticipation. The difference between both ways is
only in the 1-2 mm area, but anyhoo.. Including spacers looks like it would
-slightly- increase the reflex of the flap. Just trying to get a feel for
what others have done, or interpreted this move. A short search on matronics
did not eek out any results.
Thanks in advance,
Greg

Taken at Duxford RAF and USAAC Museum in England.
Two of the greatest WWII fighter planes of their era....the American
P51 Mustang and the British Supermarine Spitfire.
Both planes were powered by the powerful Rolls Royce Merlin
engine......which emitted that wonderful sound that became known to
many as 'The Sound of Freedom' during the 1940s.
RR Merlin engine - V12- 27 litres (1650 cu in)
The P-51 pilot does a great job staying in his position as he has more
power and is faster than the spitfire. The P51 was powered by the
Packard V-1650 version of the Merlin that was manufactured in the USA.
They must have done more than a little practicing!!
