Pegasus 2

@Alison Thompson

• New landing gear prototype CAD reviewed, small comment then time for drawing

• @Smile Khatri has worked hard on the arm connectors

  • I looked at these today

  • IMO 3 fit well, one is too loose (I labeled the loose one)

  • I would like to see that one remade

  • Need to get these to machinist to CNC ASAP, can the 4th one be remade by end of week?

• As soon as new landing gear prototype is tested and we’re happy with it we can start cutting and drilling arm and leg tubes

• Prototype will be made as soon as stock comes in

• Comp ones made as soon as we’re happy with prototype

@Evan Janakievski

@Sohee Yoon

• New aeropanels are taking shape, sims were done for different cabin shapes.

• Reworked timelines, hard deadline of March 27th for design to be finalized and reviewed

• Make panels on March 29th or 30th
