Bellcrank Ribs And F-01406B Bulkhead Complete
Finally getting past making individual parts and now building fuselage structure. First got the battery angles riveted to the bellcrank ribs. Then worked on the F-01406B bulkhead by deburring, dimpling and riveting in 11 nutplates. I tested all the threads before installation. I had one bad rivet that was removed uneventfully. Then finished up the day by riveting the bellcrank ribs to the bulkhead. I ended up bucking them with the rivet gun which went pretty smoothly. The factory heads needed to be at the front of the structure per plans so using the squeezer and flange yoke was awkward at best due to the squeezer orientation.
