Brief Description:  Riveting the Forward Fuselage 2

Got a lot done today, like:

- Painted all the remaining fuselage parts with Cortec anti-corrosion paint.
- Reassembled the entire fuselage.
- Trimmed the bottom edge of the forward side skins to be flush with the outside of the cabin floor.
- Painted the forward (engine) side of the firewall with white, high temperature, anti-corrosion paint. A light color is supposedly a desireable color for the engine compartment.
- Riveted the upper tail section locking in the upper rear longeron and horizontal tail mounting frame.
- Began riveting the forward fuselage, finishing off the forward passenger area.
