Didn’t get a lot done tonight. For some reason I was dog tired, but I still managed to go get a little something done. There are two holes that go through the forward floor, the longeron, and finally the outboard gear tower weldment. I’d drilled those initially to #30 before, and tonight I drilled them to the final size of #19, then countersunk for flush screws. Then I pulled the longeron out and deburred all those holes I’d drilled. The plans also call for a bit of radiusing on the vertex of the aft end of the longeron, something to do with promoting a better fit of some part down the road. Then I put the longeron back into place and clecoed/bolted/screwed it in place. The next step is to repeat all this on the right longeron, but that’s for another time, maybe this weekend. After that, looks like I get to fit the auxiliary longerons…
