Fuselage Section 26, Mid Fuselage Ribs and Bottom Skins

Section 26, Mid Fuselage Ribs and Bottom Skins

Work started on Section 26 in the week of May 7th. Progress looked promising until I was selected for a three week civil jury trial, it caused havoc with ALL plans of life outside of jury duty. I enjoyed my civic duty responsibility even though it did take 3 weeks!

This particular section for some reason was hard to concentrate on with the other responsibilities at the time and so might have taken longer than needed. I finally wrapped up most of the section on May 26th when my parents came to town. Everything in the section was completed except for driving all the rivets. I have been working on that for 2 hours each day since June 3rd and hope to finish it June 5th.

My wife and mother jumped in and helped pull all the blue plastic protective material off the fuselage parts I had laying around in the garage. I thank them for that!!!!
