Fuselage kit arrived!

3 hrs, 17 rivets
Countersink left trailing edge wedge. All the drilling is now done for the flaps. Still need to countersink the left skins.
Rivet right leading edge rib/bracket assemblies. Decided to leave the nose ribs with just alodine as a primer. If it's good enough for the main spar....




Started unpacking the fuselage. Got a lot of help from the FAA inspector!
