Finished phase 1 of drilling the Aft Fuselage - 3 hours

This evening I finished up match drilling the aft fusalage. Well...almost. I've not inserted the bottom most j-stiffener as getting the F-779 cleco'd into the side skins is impossible with it in place during initial drilling. I then uncloed nearly the entire assembly to install the lower F-768C J-stiffeners and began to re-cleco the assembly.
 
I was getting a bit tired of working on the fuselage  so I jumped over to begin the rough fabrication of the F-792 rudder stops. Of course there is absolutely no need to do this now...it not actually required till much later. I just needed a little break from clecoing.
