Brief Description:  Working my way back on the belly skin and splice.

Continued working my back on the 422 belly skin. The plans say you can get a "perfect butt joint" aft of the 404 bulkhead (spar box), where the wedge was sheared out. But, I am not sure that is possible, or necessary. In the life of this aircraft, I expect that oil, grease, and other debris will try to make its way into the fuse via this gap. I plan on filling this gap from the outside with ProSeal, to have a smooth fillet, that will keep stuf out of the fuse. This would be very hard to do with a tight butt joint. I want a little gap there to give the sealant some room, and something to stick to.
