This morning I got to work on something besides seat floors (or floorboards). I had to skip the fuel valve and mid cabin covers as I need to order my Andair fuel valve (I may borrow my buddy Greg's ).
-final drilled #40 the nutplate rivet holes in the fwd seat ramp ribs and the forward seat ramp
-removed the plastic and deburred the same
-Used tin snips to remove tabs from both sides of the F879 seat ramp.
-Dimple countersunk the nutplate rivet holes on the fwd seat ramp ribs and fwd seat ramp.
-next step was to prime (too cold and dark)
-Skipped ahead to the F865 (right side) console. Temporarily screw'd into place and drilled #19 the #8 screw holes (2) in the F804 bulkhead cap on the centersection.
-Removed both the console and the F804 and drilled #40 nutplate rivet holes for the two #8 nutplates to be installed.
