If you were in charge of Raptor and had to fly it 6 months from now, what would you change/test/do?

Starter ideas:
- Install 300hp IO-540 and new cowl
- Flip aircraft and do sandbag load tests
- Carefully review pushrods, bellcranks, and control system attach points
- Remove any non-critical equipment (AC, pressurization, etc.)

What say you?
