Fuselage

My next step was to fabricate the F-633 Control Column Mounts. Using the dimentions as detailed on the bulprints, I measured and located the first bolt hole and drilled it, and then bolted it to the aft F-704. I was then able to square it and back drill the second hole through the pre-punched hole in the bulkhead. I then used the dimentions in the blueprint to mark and trim away an area on the angle to save some weight.
