Brief Description:  Riveting top rear fuselage

I completely forgot to register this last weekend work. My buddy Yvon came to help riveting the rear end which went as planned. All my preparation prio of his visit paid of as it went presst smoothly. It really starts to look like a complete airplane. I think I have somewhere around 90% of the metal completed.

Next I will keep moving forward .... Soon I will resume working on the panel and doing all the electrical wiring , installation and detail work. I think my sequence will be something like this:

1. Roughly closing luggage & seat area,
2. Installing sub & panel
3. Complete avionics install
4. Closing front end / install forward wheels / installing the canopy
5. Hang up the engine
6. Complete wiring
7. Baffle / exhaust
8. Cowling install
9. install the rest of the fiberglass tips
10. Get it ready for paint

You get the idea ? There are a lot done already but there are still a lot to do ....

One bite at a time , this is how you can eat a whole whale !
