Fuselage  

 

    
    
<< Bulkheads - riveted together.

A dab of proseal on the bottom of the firewall bulkhead>>

 

<< Firewall and bulkhead pieces

Firewall mounted in jig >>

 

<< Longerons bent and setting on the jig 

Lining up the bulkheads >> 

 

<< If you're building the -8a, the rear tie-down goes on the aft (F812) bulkhead ,, but the skin comes with a hole for the -8 tie down location. I made a plug and will "move" the hole back to the aft bulkhead.

Center section going together, arrow shows the location for the countersunk rivet,, so the block will set flush over it >>
