As part of putting in the floors and taking out the floors - I recalled a modification that allows the front section of the floor to be removed and installed without removing the aft control mount so I did the mod. Since I already had the aft control mount installed I needed to remove it and the stick. Then I installed the floors and marked the cut areas, then removed it all and made the cuts. I did a test run by putting things back together and it works well.
I also noticed that when I went to put the rear seat in, the hinges were out of sync with where they should be...not sure how I did that but I will need to fix it. I drilled out the seat hinge rivets since the floor rivets were already painted and I will continue the work on this.
