inside corner wraps....

Hello

I am ready to fit the inside corner wrap in the tail cone section. Manual say to fit a corner wrap between bulkhead "C" and "D" an then continu
up to bulkhead "A". That mean half corner wrap between C and D and then a complete one between C and A. Is my understanding OK?

The manual do not say a word about riveting that section... In my logic, I should rivet everything except at A and E bulkhead... is it ok? ( I
know I should probably call the guy who my inspection before close the floor....)

Thanks again

Hi Jean
Looks like I'm still just barely ahead of you. ;) I think I recall others
saying to make the floor and corner wraps go all the way back. I used full
length ones between A-C and C-E. I also found it fairly easy to make them
from stock if you need to buy more <a

Yes, rivet inside corner wraps at each bulkhead. Use lexan as per MAM and
others to be careful to hit the narrow width of the bulkheads <a

I didn't close (rivet) my inside corner wraps or floor yet because in doing
the next tail area backward (Fus-29 and 30, tail post area), you will need
to drill out from the inside of Bulkhead E. An inside corner wrap there
would prevent that.
