Merry Christmas!

With the forward skin cleco'd to the existing holes, I match-drilled the sub-panel ribs to the skins. Did the same for the rivet holes that'll mate the skin to the firewall flange.

DANGER!! The firewall is made of stainless steel, not aluminum. I know this already, but absent mindedly ran my finger along the rivet holes to check for burrs....yep, they were there, but not in the form of soft aluminum. I slashed the ends of two of my fingers open.

Hey, airplanes are made of blood, sweat, and tears.
