Brief Description:  Fuselage - MOD - Bulkhead F866B - Avionic Access H

This Friday, I continued modification of F866B bulkhead to add the avionic access hatch. For this afternoon and evening work session, I did:

- Finalize laying out the bulkhead doubler
- I went to St-Roch to use Ben's nibbler to cut-out the hatch hole in doubler. Then I returned to my shop to finalize cut-out with shear and dremel cutting wheel.
- I deburred the opening in doubler
- lay out rivet holes in bulkhead and doubler. Drill out all the holes
- Made the hatch door panel with 0.025" AL 2024-T3. Deburred all edges
- Made hatch door stiffener angles with 0.025" Al 2024-T3 material. Layout rivet holes then, match drilled in hatch door.

Left the shop at around 10PM
