Tonight was a fun night!  I started by riveting the seat hinge to the pans, then riveted those in to the fuselage seat ribs.

Then I cut and bent the pins that will attach the seatbacks.  These are in place just so I don't loose them.

I didn't get a picture of it, but I cleco'd the other two seat skins in place in order to fit the center tunnel cover, F-741.  That was fabbed up next.  The cover, F-741B, is a pre-cut piece that just needs a bend on the forward edge.  It's about an eight inch by two and three quarters inch piece of .040.

The supports, F-741A L&R, are Z channel that has several angular cuts made.

After they were cut and smoothed out, the only other thing I did was drill pilot holes in the bottom flange.  They get drilled for screws next.

3.0 hours
