Continuing the Fuselage

This week I have continued with the fuselage, cutting out the fuel tank floor and the wing saddles. The formers were all glued to the crutch ensuring that each was vertical first using a set square. Following installation of the formers a limited number of stringers were glued into place to ensure the formers stayed vertical. The wng saddles and the fuel tank floor were then glued into position. Before I install the remaining stringers I will be putting the elevator and rudder push rods in place.
