Hi Bill,

        I like that idea.  It looks nice and the wiring looks to be well

protected.  I think that I may do it that way.  I will make a bit of a

"ramp" / flat surface for the wiring to ride on.  That would give the

sleeved wiring a smooth surface if it touches the fiberglass.  It will

just take a few more days  (again) to do it.

Jim,



The "ramp" you mention is exactly what I did. I applied several layers

of fiberglass and filler to yield about 3/8" lip inside the slot on the

rudder butt. The tail wheel spring mount certainly limits one's options

in this area.

Hi Bill,

        I fortunately or unfortunately as one may feel, do not have that

problem.  This time I will own a plane with the weeney wheel up front. 

My past four planes had all had the proper wheel in the back.  My wife

suggested that I move the control wheel up front because of "?age?" and

insurance.   Oh well, it could be worse.  At least I will still be

flying. (soon).

        I'm digging for a grommet to handle both wiring systems as I am

doing a strobe/tail light configuration.  I've got a bit of shrink

material to protect wires.



Jim
