Brief Description:  16 Aft tailcone assembly

37. Loosely lay angle F23-04 into the bottom of the tailcone. Spread the tailcone as required to get it to sit on the lower longerons.

38. NOW you can cleco the entire assembly from Step 35.

39. Cleco angle F23-04 at the bottom of the tailcone (bottom of photo #1). -- See photo #1 on the next page (17) for a photo of the inside of the tailcone.

40. Cleco angle T12-05 to the upper longerons (top of photo #1).

41. Place the channel of the Lower Fin Post in place behind the F23-01 Tailwheel/Skid Mount plate.

42. Place the F21-02 spacer between the channel and the F23-01 Tailwheel/Skid Mount, and place spacer T09-03 between angle T12-05 and the channel.

43. Cleco everything in place. Long reach gold clecos are good for the bolt holes.

44. Install angle F22-06, and cross tie F24-09 with clecos.

45. Rivet everything on the F21 sheet. But CAREFULLY read the plans before riveting each area, as some areas are called for no rivets at this time. For instance, in photo #2 the rivets holding the Lower Fin Post channel to the fuselage side, get installed. but the plans say NOT to install this row of rivets on the LEFT side of the channel/fuselage.

These photos don't show the rivets, but tonight I riveted everything except the items around bulkhead #1.
