Palm sander with 100 grit and about a minute a side - just enough to
knock the sheen off.

| Subject: | Transponder Connector Depth Question |
Trying to rough-in the location of my transponder ala Jack Phillips, in the
rear center section and not sure if I will have enough depth. Can anyone
tell me the approximate depth of a connector? Do they make them in a right
angle? I'm also concerned that I won't be able to see the numbers. I'm
using a King KT 76a, where the numbers are above the knobs. Jack, am I
correct that I should locate left or right of center to enable seeing the
numbers?
Thanks,
Jack

I also have a King KT96A. I would not try to mount it until you have the
appropriate tray with the connecting harness. You might need to tilt it
slightly to be easier to see, but I just stick my head out into the
slipstream to read the numbers.

So I finally have a pietenpol wing in my garage, have just started
removing fabric and cutting rib stitching, hoping to get the fuselage
moved in eary next week.
Just going to go thru it real well, and get it recovered and flying
again! It hasn't flown for about 8 years or so I think, so wish me
luck!! And the looks from te neighbors was priceless! Just moved into
my house in April, I think the neighbors thought I was kidding when I
warned them about my projects!
A quick history, my grandpa built it in the late 60's, corvair
powered, he all but flew the wings off it! and well I can't wait to
get it going!!

Grandpa has the prop! It needs revarnished, but it's safe and dry, so
that is at the end of my list!!
I mean... I removed everything that causes drag!
