Brief Description:  Finish Riveting Bottom Skin on Center Section

I started solo riveting this morning. Was able to reach around and rivet a couple of rows on each side by myself. Kevin came over in the afternoon and we finished riveting the seat ribs to the skin. The verticle orientation was too wobbly for the baggage ribs, so we put the center section upside down on the bench with the F-705 on a 4x4. I was able to work underneath and buck the rivets starting at the F-705 and working aft. Did about half the rivets and then moved the center section forward on the bench and re-positioned the 4x4 across the baggage ribs to rivet the last half.

Flipped the center section over, located the seat and baggage floors and cleco'd them on to prepare for drilling.
