Fuselage center section #71 - Rollover bar brace and aft baggage bulkhead riveting!

 Riveted the remaining parts of the roll bar brace and aft baggage bulkhead tonight.

Cleco'ed the aft bulkhead ribs and supports to the rear of the baggage compartment.

Riveted the ribs to the fuse assembly, riveted the vertical braces and the nutplates.

Next riveted the aft gussets to the rollover bar brace.

Then riveted the aft end of the brace to the aft baggage bulkhead.


Then I riveted the fwd flanges to the back side of the rollover bar.

Then countersunk these ten holes and riveted the top of the brace to the rollover bar.

All done!


Next I riveted this assembly together with the nutplates and rivets.


Then riveted it to the pilot's side rib support.

Let's make some seats!
