Fuselage May 2006 Updates May 14, 2006 Rivet Prep Time..... - 4.0 hrs Removed the left sideskin. Countersunk the 704H doubler and primed. Next I did the same thing on the other side. Riveted the 719B to the 713 Aux longeron. Clecoed all of the forward stiffeners back in place to make sure everything is done and ready to put back together once I get the skins dimpled. I found one hole I missed on countersinking. Removed the 715 outboard seat ribs and deburred and dimpled. Also dimpled the bottom outboard set of holes in the center section bottom skin.
