Empennage Attached
I finished the empennage today with some help from Brendon and Kate. Trying to work on the ground while also having to be in the fuselage was not going to work with just one person. But all of the rivets have been set. I am surprised that they didn’t install these edges that attach to the skin that the baggage floor rests on. They didn’t need to be off for the empennage to be set and it even has them install it in earlier sections. Either way I went back and installed those along with the shims that go with the baggage door opening side. I guess they wanted more strength there since that is where luggage will be entering. Either way it looks good and is ready for the next step! I need to see what parts are needed as I left some parts in storage so I might need to bring some of those back soon.
