Join center and aft section

Due to work, I haven't been putting in as much time on the plane as I would like, but progress is being made. I finished the center section- riveted up the center bottom skin and the seat and baggage ribs- and bent the main longerons. Here you can see the aft and center sections joined together for the first time, and the main longerons in place. I added the forward side skins too- for the first time, it's starting to look like an airplane!



Next, the firewall gets added, lots of stiffeners and angles and doublers get put in the forward area, and then it's the usual drill: drill everything, uncleco, deburr, dimple/countersink, prime, and then finally cleco back together and rivet.
