We found one step reasonably priced for the passenger/right side so I think we’ll roll with just one.

It all looked good on the bottom, but reach your hand around to the top. Uh-oh! Surprisingly, this plane has no other corrosion on the plane. Even the other side of the main spar inside the wing root fiberglass has no corrosion. Make sure you check your plane out thoroughly.

Hi Dave,

How did it go? We will be attempting this next month. Did you swap to LED lights to avoid magnetometer interference?

This was a great story and thanks so much for sharing it along with the ear-to-ear grin photo!

Thanks Andrew. Previous owner of our Traveler removed the steps and glassed in the wing root section and repainted so it will take some effort to procure/make the steps, cut the wing root FG, and add the cowling. Leaving it as-is is looking better and better.
