Began phase 2 of drilling the Aft Fuselage - 3 hours

Now that I had the aft fuselage assembly reclecoed (added the lowest j-stiffeners and removed the F-779 skin) I needed to re-level and plumb the entire aft assembly....again. A very tedious process but totally required. Once the plumb-bob settled and I was happy with the alignment I began to cleco the F-786C j-stiffeners to the side skins so I could start the process of match drilling those stiffeners. I started at the back and worked forward.
