Brief Description:  Foreward fuselage prep, bkkae master cylinders

Most of the session was spent with continued disassembly of the forward fuselage and preparation of parts. The lower longerons and gear webs were removed and deburred. The longerons were also countersunk. I countersunk the main longeron back to the aft fuselage while still clecoed in place. I got some help moving the center fuselage back to the floor and then removed the main longerons to continue countersinking.

I have some concerns about the placement and drilling of some gussetts to the firewall angle so I sent a picture to Van's for their thoughts. I may end up with some rework to do next week.

I also mounted the brake master cylinders to the rudder/brake pedals. I have upgraded to Grovke brakes instead of those supplied with the kit.
