Brief Description:  Remake fuselage channels

I have been off for a week. Went to a wedding in Florida, then the 4th of July with the family.

Came back ready to put more of the aft fuselage together. Spent some time looking at sheet F26, plus print outs from other Sonex builders' web sites.

Then realized that I made 4 of the 10 channels for the aft fuselage about 3/4" too long! Doh!

I was able to simply shorten F26-05 R/L, but F26-01 R/L needed to be remade. I didn't have much scrap .032, but I did have enough. So tonight I got F26-01 R all laid out and pilot drilled, and ready to bend. I used it as a template and got -01 L laid out, ready to be pilot drilled.

A bit of a setback, but not horrible, anyway.
