Brief Description:  Flox bulkheads to sides

After a successful dry assembly, the bulkheads were removed and all parts to be glued were sanded ready for the flox.

The firewall is not glued in at this stage to make the spar easier to fit later. It is secured with bulldog clips and the other parts and joining places on the sides were then coated with pure epoxy and then flox and assembled.

The backseat has 6 clecos to hold it in place and the front seat has nails which are pre positioned. F22 also has 4 positioning nails. F22 has warped since I made it and the second pic shows a clamping system I added to ensure it was straight and properly seated while the flox dries.

After spending so much time with the dry set up, everything went together quite well.

I'll leave the clamps on until I have some of the BID tapes done as there is not a lot of gluing surface at this stage.

Its great to have something in 3D now and the beginnings of a fuselage.
