Brief Description: Rear Turtle Deck
|
|
It's been the week from hell and back at work after taking 1 weeks leave, its like the gods were trying to get even with me for having a break. Anyway, I finally made it back into the garage this evening and drilled the 3 rear formers with the required pilot holes so that the rear top skin can be clecoed in place. Once this was done I marked the aircraft centre line on the rear skin and drilled the 3 holes at 85mm, 635mm and 605 from the rear of the skin on the centre line, from there its a matter of just clecoing the skin to the centre holes drilled in the formers. Any the rear two holes where drilled in the right place, the last forward most hole ended up being at 505mm not 605mm, now I know I am tired because I measured it wrong twice. Oh well an extra rivet will fill that hole. Tomorrow I'll back drill the rest of the formers to the turtle deck. Clive is going to come and give me a hand, as pay back for the help I gave him last Wednesday night to back drill his rear turtle deck. No flying tomorrow which is probably just as well, as I am not in a fit state of mind...
