Boschaero\Naval Research Lab Daily Report

We got to the airfield just before sunrise. |
 |
I had the airplane pulled from the hangar to pre flight. |
 |
During the pre flight inspection we found a cracked air scoop. I am removing it so we can make a sleeve in order to repair the problem. |
 |
This is the broken air scoop. |
 |
I'VE GOT YOUR INNER ISLAND PHONE SERVICE RIGHT HERE LADY! |
 |
With a big smile and a hi ho we were off to the store. |
 |
After going to several stores we finally found something we could use to make a sleeve. No one can ever say to us "You have everything but the kitchen sink in there" again. |
 |
here is the piece before I cut off a 3 inch section to complete the repair. |
 |
After a quick jolt of the local refreshment the job was finished. |
 |
The job is done. The sleeve was clamped and riveted to the original piece and new screws were used to mount the clamp. |
 |
We finished the repair in the nick of time. It began to rain moments after we put the tools away. |
