Empennage, Aft Fuselage (Part 20)

During today's session, I prepared the remaining parts (well, all but two--F-01418B-L and -R Longerons) with Alumiprep and Alodine.  Then, all 18 pieces were Akzo Epoxy Primed.  The first picture shows some of the pieces handing up to dry after being Alodined.  

After all the Alumiprep and Alodine was completed, I started spraying the Akzo.  Here is the first batch to get primed.....

The second "batch' was the F-01478 Bottom Skin.....

Here's the third batch.....

And finally, the fourth batch.

Now, I can start the official assembly of the Aft Fuselage tomorrow.
