At long last we've flipped the canoe. The fuselage has gone from an up-side-down project to an right-side-up airplane. This is a bit moment for a builder because it represents the well-past halfway point of the build. Things after this happen very quickly according to the directions. It takes a very long time and a lot of careful preparation to get to this point and it seems that most of the hardest parts are in the front half of the fuselage. This is also a great moment becuase my son helped me so much during this portion as most of the riveting is a two person job. He got progressively better from the tailcone through the rest of the riveting that he can I can rivet as a team much better than I can rivet alone. Lastly, this cut me loose to do a bunch of work on my own without needing him to break away from his xBox to come help.

Plenty of leg room
Don't understand why this looks so cool but it does.
