Brief Description:  Forward fuselage

Today I began the build out of the forward fuselage. The four F-704 attach straps were fabricated and drilled to the main longeron and 704 bulkhead flanges. Then the firewall was clamped to the main longerons and forward side skins. After marking a centerlin on the firewall bottom angle the forward bottom skin was position and once everything was aligned the firewall was drilled to the forward side skins. Next the F-713 auxillary longerons were firrted and drilled to the side skins. Then the F-719 angle clips were fabricated. The F-719 foreward skin stiffeners were fitted and dilled to the side skins.
