Brief Description:  Instrument Panel Fitting and drilling

Spent a lot of time fussin with getting what I felt was a good fit between the instrument panel and the F-821 upper skin. I have an older kit from January 2006. The instrument panel has been somewhat redesigned and from what I have heard from my friend Jim the fitting and drilling was
far more straight forward.....all he said he had to do was open up the clearance for the longeron.

Anyway, after fitting to where it seemed as good as it gets, I drilled and clecoed the F-821 skin
to the F-803 CPP instrument panel flange. The fit on the sides of the instrument panel is not quite there but I want to get the sides of F-821 skin drilled before seeing what I really have to adjust of deal with prior to trying to fix it.

I also have not drilled and clecoed the bottom brackets that are made from the seperated sections of the instrument panel flange....I will wait till final tweeking and fitting is complete.
