Brief Description:    Fuselage flooring
Working on the fuselage flooring.

I decided to do some changes here. The original flooring was done from 0.020” aluminum and it was too flimsy in my opinion. I understand the weight penalty, but I used 0.032” aluminum instead and I was very pleased with results. The foot well had big gap behind pedals and I did not like it too. I thought that if I get a fire in the engine compartment in the flight it will be the place where the flame and smoke will enter the cockpit. I decided to cover that cap and I made the new bigger floor panel from 0.032” aluminum.
