Brief Description:  Baggage area and rear skins

A pretty good day today.

Was dreading the baggage area side covers. They needed to be trimmed, but there were no good drawings or instructions. However, on the top side of the skins, there are two little notches that form the limits of the cuts. Cut between the notches, perfect fit, no problem.

Installd the back of baggage area corregated wall. Thought I would have problems with the nutplate allignment. Again, no problem.

Installed the tunnel cover in the baggage area. This did fight me a little bit where the angle turns up. I had to rebend it a little, to make it fit.

Pulled off both rear top skins. Removal of the skins always feels like a step backwards - a little tramatic.

It was nice outside. Set my bench up in the driveway with my c-frame dimpler. Deburred and scuffed up the two big panels. Banged away with teh c-frame a few hundred times. Then took the skins to my outdoor priming area and rattle canned them to their current state.

I will re-rack these two skins in my top storage area for now - in the morning.
