Brief Description: Begin AFT FUSELAGE construction!
Tonight I finally got to begin on the aft fuselage construction!
- Spent a lot of time looking over and trying to understand the next 4 sheets of drawings.
- Marked the right fuselage skin for a 3/4" bend along the forward vertical edge, then measured and marked the location of the vertical framing members.
- Bent the forward edge as req (14 deg).
- Put double sided tape on the upper longeron, alinged it with the top of the skin, and set the longeron.
- Carefully turned over the skin and drilled 4 pilot holes for the longeron. Cleco'd in place then called it a night.
