19/06/2011 - Fitted and drilled top skins and stringers

With some help from Bob I decided we should fit and drill the rear top skins.  Its good to see more sheets being added and starts to show how the tail will really look.  It was a bit fiddly to fit these but I think that's because I didn't have the bulkheads perfectly straight.

 

I also fitted the gussets as well and just drilled one hole so they were straight with the side skins....and as a result of drilling just a few holes inside the tail I am not looking forward to bucking the rivets to hold the skins on.  I don't think I will be doing it on a warm day thats for sure !!
