More fitting fuselage parts
Hours: 2.1 | Posted in Upper Fuse & SkinsCompleted drilling the aft deck spaces, fit and drilled the forward gussets at the firewall/upper longeron intersection. Drilled the harness anchors to the longerons, riveted the bellcrank support to the baggage bulkhead, and clecoed the small gussets that affix some of the tailcone bulkheads to the longerons. I’ll wait to clamp these in place until the aft skins are clecoed on.
In spare time, doing mental and paper fiddling with the electrical system and antennas. I believe it will be easier to “design in” those things, rather than build the fuselage and add them afterwards.
