Brief Description: Left & Right Fuselage Stiffeners
Continued work beefing up the front of the fuselage. Today I finished off the left side by:
1. Adding in a gusset that connects the curved L-angle to the heel support 2. Adding a rolled gusset that connects the side skin to the heel support 3. adding in a diagonal Z-angle to stiffen the skin between the main spar and the curved L-angle.
After updrilling the left side to final rivet size (to collect more pilot hole-sized clecoes) I moved over to the right side and installed the curved L-angle and all three L-angles that connect the curved L-angle to the firewall.
Left side. Z-angle (L), gusset (middle) and curved gusset (R) in place.
