Brief Description:  Finished Aft fuselage bulkhead Alignment

Installed guide strings top, bottom, left and right to assist in proper bulkhead alignment. Installed aluminum cross braces on each bulkhead to stabilize. Installed all wood 2x4 supports fro each bulkhead (these will mainly be used when doing the side skins) Notes: Generally I am happy with the overall compatibility with each bulkhead profile and design fuselage station. The 122.625 bulkhead needed to be moved .125 forward (to station 122.5) to achieve optimum fit with profile of other bulkheads. Also, the slot in bulkheads 122.625 and 102.625 needed to be relieved upward .08 to accomodate a straight line fit for the lower skin flange (to be bent after initial fit up of lower skin)
