Started fitting the Baggage Bulkhead - 2.5 hours

I am ready to start fitting the F-751 baggage bulkhead. I cleco'd in the baggage floors and baggage side covers and celco's in the baggage bulkhead. I started checking the fit, making sure all was sitting correctly. 

 


I wasn't loving the fit...the holes along the F-728A bellcrank channel sit just a bit inboard toward the vertex of the channel, as well I want to make sure the bulkhead is sitting level at the top. A few things may help my cause. I still have some riveting to do at the bottom of the bellcrank channel. As well I still need to install the nutplates for the baggage bulkhead along the bottom of the F-706 bulkhead.
