Brief Description:  Rivet Baggage Floors

You can see in the first picture where I ended up running the wiring conduit through the F706 and F705 bulkheads. I hope this works out OK. I can still run wires down through the tunnel snap bushings if I need to. What a pain it was riveting the baggage floors in. Pop riveting the floors to the ribs wasn't a big deal although I did end up having one stand proud. I'm not sure if I'll drill this out or leave it. If I drill it out, the mandrel will fall under the floor, which I no longer have access to to get it out. It will forever roll around in there. I'll probably just leave it as is, especially since I will be carpeting everything anyway. The hard part about installing the floors was riveting the aft flanges to the F706 bulkheads and installing the corresponding nutplates. Just a tight area to work in. I was able to finish the right floor. The left floor is riveted to the ribs and side covers but I still have to rivet the aft flange to the F706 and install nutplates on that side.
