Brief Description:  Fuselage - FWD floor rework

Now with all the parts available and NAS1097 rivets in stock, I started working on the FWD floor panel, part 2

I fitted the F802L-1 crossmember on the floor bottom side. I found that I have a 0.018" gap between the parts. I decided to countersking holes a little bid more, and removing the paint in the countersking help me achieve a gap not more than 0.012". Without reaching the Knife edge condition, I countersunk just a little more and achieved just under 0.010" gap. I shall fill that gap with sealant/liquid shim, and that should be sufficient to fill it.

Next, let's move on with this sub-assembly to get it completed !
