While waiting on some riveting help, I decided to move on to the next section and start preparing some parts. As the section is titled, Aft Fuselage Attachment, there are only be a few parts that need to be prepared....the focus of the section is connecting the two “halves” of the Fuselage together.
The first two pieces to be prepared are the F-01406A-L & -R Bulkheads. The picture below shows the two completed parts. Each part had the holes deburred, edges cleaned, appropriate #40 and #30 holes dimpled, treated with Alumiprep, treated with Alodine and Akzo primed. The next step is to install the required nutplates.
The next part to get prepared is the F-01406C Bulkhead (top piece). This part was prepared in the same manner as the two Bulkheads above. Additionally, the two F-1231D Roll Bar Bases (to be used in Section 29) were treated with Alumiprep, Alodine and Akzo Primer.
