Much easier to to work in the inside of the boom for rods and cables. The frame is aluminum and I’ll work one side at a time.

Off came the nose today. The replacement is in the shop waiting until all the remnants have been drilled out and repairs made. The tail rotor pedals and linkage will go on while it is so easy to get to.
