In Andy Green's diary entry for January he said that there were issues with the curing of the glue in the upper chassis. Have these issues been resolved yet?
Yes.we are carrying out an ultra sonic inspection of the upper chassis, any rivets that have gaped will be replaced, then we have an adhesive that will capillary into any areas that are not bonded properly.
At the end of the day the structure is strong enough without the adhesive, it merely adds stiffness, not strength.

Top left - Is that filler?
Yes, firstly to fill in the joint between the intake & the monocoque, secondly to ensure a good fit to the upper chassis, it's the merest skim, generating a small out of wind step.benters said:
where does it go for the paint job. . .? or is it more like the man with the rattle can comes to you ?
Likely we'll have a painter visit with a large spray booth (tent) to do the job.Edited by IN51GHT on Saturday 21st March 09:13
