Fwd Fuse Ribs - Fwd Cabin Floor Panel

Just a mini-session tonight, final-drilling the forward cabin floor panels and pulling them back off the floor ribs. The floor pans have now been added to a growing pile of parts that are final-drilled but not yet deburred, dimpled, countersunk, or whatever other prep-work is needed before priming and final assembly.

It looks like the next step will be to join the forward and mid sections together-- albeit only temporarily-- which is still an exciting prospect! No time to do that tonight, but we did at least dig out the wing attach hardware and 56 spacers needed to do the job. Unfortunately it might not be until next week that we get around to working on this any more, we have a big weekend coming up putting in some extra time at work and then Sunday is our big annual fly-in/drive-in breakfast at C17, where I'll be helping to cook eggs, pancakes, and sausage for what's expected to be over a thousand guests. Fun times for sure, but I'll be looking forward to getting back to fuselage as soon as we can!
