Work has kept me busy the last couple of weeks, but I wanted to give the plane a thorough inspection after the trip. \u00a0While I was doing the inspection, I upgraded the SkyView system with the version 11 software that was announced at the show. \u00a0It included a new very-high resolution database, so it took quite a while to load.<\/p>\n

I gave the engine compartment a thorough inspection. \u00a0There were no surprises, and everything looks great.<\/p>\n

One of the tabs on the upper gear leg fairing broke off. \u00a0This allowed the clamp to loosen and the gear leg fairing to slide down a bit.<\/p>\n

The side cowl hinge pin also broke loose from the hinge pin cover. \u00a0I cleaned out the old JB Weld and mixed up some epoxy\/flox. \u00a0After applying some electrical tape around the opening to prevent the epoxy from adhering, I applied the epoxy. \u00a0After it cured, I popped it off and cleaned up the excess. \u00a0This seems quite a bit stronger than the JB Weld, so hopefully it will hold up. \u00a0Other than these couple of issues, there were no faults on the plane.<\/p>\n
