[rebel-builders] rear fuse to bulkhead A
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 10:56 am
Ben,
I pretty much ditched the manual for this area. It just doesn't make sense.
I have the tailcone completed from "A" back. I drilled "A" and the float
half-bulkhead to #40 and just clecoed them in for now. My thinking was that
anything in that general area that will interface with the forward fuselage
should not be drilled to final size yet. No reason not to drill to #40
though, the holes are already located by the side/top/bottom skins, so why
wait? I even used the fus 24 side panels when drilling the bulkhead just to
make sure everything is aligned.

Seems like a few of us are about the same point in the game. :)
So here's where I'm a little stumped... MAM says when drilling thru skin
holes
to bulkheads, to not drill into bulkhead A. Fine enf, this implies that
comes
later when the next section of fuse is joined. But MAM does say to drill
and
rivet on the corner wraps, which *do* pick up bulkhead A, as well as the
second bulkhead made for the float attach points.
Should I rivet the corner corner wraps to bulkhead A and the float bulkhead
at this point? If so, I spose fine to rivet skins to the float bulkhead
too.
TIA,
-Ben
