Brief Description:  Disassembled fuselage & made fuel valve bracket

Disassembled the tailcone and mid fuselage and machine countersunk for dimples the #30 holes in the F-822-1 forward floor panel.

Removed the forward side skins and re-cleco'd all sub-structure parts back to their respective locations.

We couldn't use the stock F-883-1 mounting bracket as we decided to upgrade to the Andair fuel selector. Fortunately we had a scrap HS spar that could be modified to do the job.

Drilled the fuel valve bracket to auxiliary longeron holes and disassembled the Fwd fuselage sub structure.
