Brief Description: All forward skins are primed and ready to reinstal
Today was a GREAT day. It was one of those days that I wish I could put more than 3 pictures on a log entry. I started today by deburring the inside of all 4 forward fuse sking, and the belly skin. I then dimpled all 5 skins, and scuffed in preparation for primer. I machine countersunk all of the forward angles/longerons, and prepared them for primer. More of the same with the F402, F405, and F406 bulkhead. So basically, everything from the firewall to the back seat that wasn't a floor rib got prepped and primed today. Turns out this Eastwood epoxy primer does not like 40 degree weather, but if you solar heat the skins, it sticks and covers much better. I moved the parts back into the shop to cure where it was warmer. I finished the night by clecoing the big belly skin in place. It is ready to machine countersink the 3/32" holes and rivet in place.
