Fuselage

Today I built the F-712 Bulkhead. This is another one of those double bulkheads where the F-712A is the front and the F-712B is the rear. This was pretty simple to put together and rivet. The difference was that this one used flush rivets and the flush side is on the rear as the aft surface has to be smooth so the vertical stabilizer spar will fit.
today: 1 hr
Fuselage: 96 hrs
Wings: 148 hrs
Empennage: 195 hrs
Total time on project: 440 hrs.
