I’ve been bad about involving Scotty in the aircraft project lately so I got him back into it today. Today he laced up the cockpit area of the fuselage.  He did well, even tying the exact knot I had been using. He learned by watching me. Even if I watched someone tie that knot 50 times I don’t think I could duplicate that knot as easily as he did. I showed him how to burn the end of the cord to prevent fraying, and he knew how to tie the correct knot so I just let him go and did some other prep work on the plane and he did great! Here is an action shot:

And here is what the plane looks like at the moment:
