Thank you all for your kind words.
The test flying program is now underway.
I hope to be at fly-ins in the not too distant future.
Thank you again to all who have helped along the way.

Ron, mine does the same. I wrapped it with nylon spiral wrap that is used
for cables. Its seems to do a nice job of protecting things.

I have seen a few photos on the group over the years with
a/c inverted and bags of sand, concrete, gold coins etc stacked
evenly on the wings to simulate the G loading, question is how are
people supporting the weight for this test through the fuselage itself
obviously the top of the cockpit would be insufficient to take such a load
of what 8000+ pounds, assuming 6g x 1370lb, or do I have the math wrong on
this
my thoughts were it may be easier to keep the A/C upright and load the
weight
into the cockpit with the whole lot supported by cradle and a few extra
supports under each wing
