Well, it's been a few days since I was able to work on the Waiex! After visiting with many other builders over the past week it's time to get back at it. I did learn that I should go ahead and install the lower forward fuselage skin. I had it in my head that both the lower fwd and aft skins needed to be left off. Now I realize that the fwd needs to be installed so that the rest of the aft seat structure can go in and so things remain rigid.
I cleaned and masked off the lower fwd skin for mating surface primer. I'll start installing it tomorrow.
