Brief Description: F-774 upper skin and rollover bar installation
My brother Bernie and I started the day off by removing the right cabin and baggage area floors and installing a wiring conduit for the navigation light, autopilot servo and elevator trim actuator wiring. With the conduit installed we reinstalled the floors. Then we riveted on the F-774 fuselage top skin. With the top skin on we were then able to rivet the F-705 bulkhead canopy latch angles into place as these had not been riveted to allow F-774 skin riveting access. With the latch angles riveted in we were then able to permanently bolt on the F-631 rollover bar and rivet the F-732 channel to the rollover bar and F-706 bulkhead.
