Log 75

The last log noted the success of troubleshooting electrical issues/wires till the D180 flight deck encoder talked to the transponder to show altitude. I discovered this problem in June and wasn't able to resolve the problem till last Monday.

Since Monday, I've spent about 12 hours troubleshooting more wires for interior lights, VOR, soldering push to talk (PTT) switch and headphone jacks, routing wires, appointment for transponder/encoder certification, fit checking lower cowling, discovering fwd camera monitor needs work since camera view is backword like a rear pointing camera, checking control fittings for anything loose, checking piano hinges for flaps and other areas for safety and a few other items. I've also been planning further fuel system testing, flight testing, calibrating the D180 flight deck and setting flight perameters like V speeds, tachometer, fuel, pressures, flows and other alerts. I have a small issue to resolve for the intercom so will be working on this again, as it worked fine up till recently while moving wires.
