I started off the build session by fitting the lower bulkhead to the upper bulkhead and drilling the holes for the #8 screws and the associated nutplates.
I then began the process of drilling ALL of the #8 holes for the require nutplates. I marked out guide lines as best I could so that the nutplates followed the lines of the bulkhead.
Then came the very tedious process of countersinking and riveting all of the nutplates. I prime all of my nutplates so there is a bit of time eaten up by prep and paint of these.
The top skin went back on as I will need to fit the F-6111 aft skin reinforcing ribs.
