- Laid out and drilled the channels on the LEFT aft fuselage skin.
Just to prove that a scratch builder can be accurate, too, a few days ago I found I had installed (due to mislabeling) a left channel on the right fuselage. I figured there would be no way to reuse the left channel tonight, but when I test fit it here, ALL the holes in the channel lined up with ALL the holes in the left skin!
