I played with the fit of the pilot side F-6111 rib. I managed to get the rim to sit/fit much better after trimming the ends. The bulkhead interferes just a tad at the top of the rib, so I need to do a little careful trimming here. In the end, this is what I finished with.
This is what the top of the rib is trimmed like.
I began working on installing the right (co-pilot side). Repeating the exact same process as before, start at the bottom and work my way up. The fitting on this side is a tad more tricky than the other side, but its going. The ribs have a real twist in them....like a real good twist. Here is what they end up looking like after final fitting.
In the end, I'm extremely happy with the fit. Not a quick process....but it turned out very nice.
Still feeling like moving forward. I drilled and trimmed the seat belt cable guides.
