I finished up the floor extension for the forward baggage area. I installed all of the nut plates, did I tell you how much I hate installing nut plates. This is one of the reasons my floors will be pop riveted per the plans, I did not want to do all of the work to install nut plates to make them removable. To me drilling out pop rivets is nearly as fast as taking the screws out. The issue is the fuselage sides are on, and this makes getting a squeezer into position near impossible. If I had slow built and could have installed the nut plates before the parts went in, it would be different. I ended up using some stainless rivets for the nut plates in the corner since I could not get the squeezer in there. Bucking was also not and option since the rivet gun could not get into this position. I primed the parts then riveted the stiffeners in place then gave it a test fit. I then painted the extension the same silver hammered color of the main floor.
