Aft Cabin, part 3 (5.5)

5.5 hours

Over the last two days I've finally gotten all the aft cabin parts fit, cleaned up, and ready to rivet.  I had to do a bunch of test fittings to figure out what Id be able to rivet together on the workbench before installing, and also to make sure I was installing everything in the correct order so I didn't block anything else that still had to go in.

I'm going to go ahead and rivet everything in, except the elevator idler assembly since that still needs some fine tuning, and it would tie the front and rear halves of the fuselage together (I'll need to split them to get out of the basement).  I also don't want to permanently attach the floor yet, so I have to be careful what I rivet!
