Brief Description:  More work on aft most tailcone bulkheads.

I spent some time improving the poor initial fit of the three most aft tailcone bulkhead assemblies. The lower aft tailcone skin is quite thick and needs some adjustment to the factory bend to make it get along well with the tailcone bulkheads. Once this was done I got started on scuffing the surface of the bulkheads in preparation to priming. I plan on getting all the tailcone components primed before continuing on with the instructions which have you prime and rivet one bulkhead assembly at a time.
