Brief Description:  F706 Bulkhead and Bellcrank Support Ribs, F-707, F

Today I wanted to get the rest of the bulkheads prepped. I started with the F-706. This is a large and very flimsy part....I know it will stiffen up when assembled with the wings, but there is not much to it. With this bulkhead I also had to assemble the bellcrank support ribs for the flaps. This was a series of ribs with angle supports. There is a lot of angle supports for the fuselage. I also needed to flute the bulkheads to make them lay flat. Since I did all of the wing ribs, this was an easy task to complete. I next assembled the F-707, F-708, F-709, and F-710 bulkheads. These needed to be fluted and then the holes for the static line, the rudder cables and the electrical wires all needed to be located and drilled. I set these all aside and pulled out the materials for the F-711 bulkhead, which I will begin to work on tomorrow. I've got to do some "real" work tomorrow morning, so I will probably not get to the plane till late afternoon. (Plus Wendy gave me some chores to do.......)
