Brief Description: Begin assembly of the forward fuselage
The center section assembly was fitted and clecoed to the forward fuselage section. The mid cabin braces were riveted and bolted as appropriate to the center section. The seat rib assembly was clecoed into place with the center section and forward fuselage assembly. The forward inboard seat rib assemblies were riveted to the center section and the lower bolts reinstalled.
The forward and aft outboard seat ribs were clecoed and then riveted in place. The bolts were installed through the ribs, spacer, and rear spar attach bulkhead. The forward outboard seat ribs were back riveted to the left and right center bottom skins.
The F-805-G1 gussets were riveted to the bottom of the F-805-L1 and F-805-R1 bulkheads. The Nutplates were inistalled on the F-860-C1 left and right arm rests. The nutplates were installed on the F-806-L1 and F-806-L2 fuselage bulkheads.
The F-806 and F-805 bulkheads were riveted to their respective forward, middle, and aft arm rests with the exception of the middle arm rest on the left side. The middle arm rest on the left is where the rear throttle will be installed. I will have to study this section of the plans a little before proceeding. I think it may be easier to do some of the throttle mod work before the arm rest is riveted into place.
