Brief Description:  Fuselage Assembly

Managed to rivet all of the forward fuselage myself, clecoed on the bottom skin and floor stiffeners.
My good friend Peter McBain came around to drive the rivet gun while I sat underneath the fuselage with a range of bucking bars. We completed the left side apart from the two cross over ribs in the baggage area, I still have to finish these. After drilling and dimpling the holes in the side baggage ribs, it ws the usual prep and prime. Clecoed these back on the fuselage and riveted the left side. While I was riveting I riveted the rear fuselage to the longerons along the 5 attach points.
Also got up inside and riveted the baggage ribs to the rear fuselage.
