Completed the updrilling of the right front fuselage skin today.
I also deburred the lower firewall to prevent lacerations, then match drilled the two sides and the lower edges of the firewal, land clecoed it in place.
I am considering adding 1/16ā thick X 5/8ā wide aluminum spacer strips between the upper and center āVā fuselage cross tubes and the firewall, to minimize the offset caused by the engine mount pads behind the firewall.
