Brief Description: Remove twist from forward fuslage
Well, after a week of concern, meditation, frustration and questioning whether this project is for me, I bit the bullet and cut the aft end of the upper longeron of the right forward fuselage. The upper longeron moved rearward about 0.3 inches rotating about the aft edge of the lower right lingeron. (see Image 1). The splices worked out all right, see image 2. At the end of the process, with the forward crosstie of the aft fuselage level, image 3 shows the level at the firewall.(about 1/4 bubble off). The vertical rivet line was completed with a combination of CCP-42's , 5/16" rivets and a 10-32 screw where the before and after holes overlapped too much. Good enough for country music, as they say. Now on to reassemble the firewall and its supporting structure.
