Brief Description:  Front Fuselage Floor Complete

Happy Thanksgiving! I worked on finishing up the front fuselage floor this morning. I still have just a bit of unfinished business with the rudder pedals, but I'll be finishing welding the bolts to the pedals soon, so that'll be it for them. I think my front fuselage floor turned out well. Because I scratchbuilt, I drilled a few extra holes, but was able to make perfectly acceptible fixes for those. My advice to other scratchbuilders is don't drill anything on the floor until you have a firm grasp on all of the rivet line intersections. The most challenging part of the whole thing for me was the small side gussets behind the center spar. Don't drill anything until you've confirmed edge distances, etc.
