Brief Description:  Rejoin Aft and Center Fuselage

I centerpunched and drilled the F-695 gussets on the marks made yesterday. Used a #40 first then opened to #30. Deburred all holes and completed edge finishing with scotchbrite wheel.

Had Kevin, Joe and Kelly come over to help rejoin the aft and center fuselage. We rolled over the aft section and used the longerons to approximate the location for the sawhorses to support the center section. We flipped the center section, and while Kelly held the aft section, Joe, Kevin and I worked to rejoin the sections. This went pretty smoothly and we quickly got some clecos in the overlap between the sections. Next we cleco'd on the two side skins.

After they left I added clecos to the structure and worked alignment of fuselage. Things went together very well. I started to cleco in the forward fuselage longerons and stiffeners.
