I wasn't planning on doing anything tonight, but decided to throw an hour or so at it anyway.  The F-721B brackets/gussets/whatever were calling my name, so I worked on getting those ready to install.

First, I clamped them to the longerons, and just used one hand to position it properly, and the other to drill the holes.

Those were removed, deburred, and countersunk.  Then I cleaned 'em up, and painted them.

I also found a small problem with the cushion clamp near the bottom of the vent line.  The screw is too long, and hits the side skin.  It's a #8 screw, and I used the Dremel to cut them shorter so they don't touch the skin.  You can see in this pic where it was rubbing on the skin.

1.25 hours
