Brief Description:  Trim emp fairing to fit and drill bottom fairing f

Much time was spent trying to figure how this should gobut basicly the upper fairing needs to butt up against the lower fairing strip about miday across the access plate. I clecoed it on and match drilled two holes into access plate and thru the longeron 7/64. Plans call for #36 but I dont have one and 7/64 is pretty darn close. Close enough for tapping a screw hole anyway.
The upper fairing required two holes as well but they are not pre punched and require some measurements first. I did this on both sides.
The lower fairing strip requires up drilling to &/64 as well and I did this both sides all except for two holes on each side that I cant reach cleanly due to the HS in the way. Since these holes will all be tapped for 6-34 screws, the HS will once again come off. I can do that as well as install all the plate nuts while epoxy cures again on the canopy skirts.
