Brief Description: F-757T plate riveting and seat bottom preparation
I started today by riveting in the F-757T plates to the F-718 main longeron at the F-705 bulkhead. These act like a gusset but also accommodates the canopy latches. Then I marked the F-742 seat bottom panels for the location of the seat back attaching hinge locations and also cut the six hinges to length.
