Workshop Upgrades

Over the last couple of weeks, the SOSA workshop has been a flurry of activity in preparation for the LS4 project scheduled for this winter.

The team consisting of Andrew Corrigan, Dennis Dyke, George Haeh, Scott Hube, Spencer Hunt, Al Grant, Ange Savoia, Dave Springford, Luke Szczepaniak, Ping Wu all led by John Brennan installed a ceiling in the shop to reduce heat loss through the roof.

Over the following week, the propane heaters were mounted to the ceiling, the propane tanks were delivered and Roy Auwaerter wired the electrical to the heaters before the gas fitter arrived to finalize the installation and hook up the gas.

We now have 90,000 BTU heating capacity in the shop to keep the workers toasty warm as we start on the LS4.

We were also able to sneak a little flying in between the work and before the snowfall covered the runway.
