March 20, 2009: Fuselage skins continued










P. 23-06 continued. Removed fuselage side skins, deburred skins and longeron. The fit of the skins to the longerons was good. Removed the tab from the skin called out in fig. 1, and then followed directions to "break" the bottom and aft edge of side skins. This worked well using the tool identified by Marty Santic.

Reassembled side skins to fuselage and riveted in place. 1st taped holes that do not receive a rivet. Also fabricated the F-1256 skin stiffeners and riveted in place. Some of the 9 hours reported here were included in preping the side skins.
