I got home from work all excited this evening: tonight was fit the empennage night when the plane would *really* start looking like a plane! Before I go into that though, I'd like to ask a question of the builders out there that peruse this Kitlog website of mine: why didn't one of you mention that I had completely forgotten to rivet the aft deck!! I was looking at it thinking; all those cleco's will be in the way. Hmm, better check back in the instructions; yep, there it is; just a few words at the end of a paragraph. Oh well, at least it has been cleco'd in every hole so I have no real worries about alignment. That discovered, I went ahead and riveted it on like I should have done back in Novermber! And so back on track, and forward too...
