Aft Fuselage (1.5)

1.5 hours

Starting to wrap my head around the aft fuselage.  There are a lot of parts!  I started by connecting the two side panels with the upper and lower horizontal channels.  These parts are mostly pre-pilot drilled so assembling them was pretty quick.  Then I flipped the structure over and set the floor skin on it.  The skin is also pilot drilled to match the horizontal channels, but it will have to be drilled to the longerons.  I was very pleased with how the skin fit in the 0.025" space that I built into the side panels by offsetting the lower longerons!
